Summary

The Sky Looks Different From Here is a heartwarming and poetic journey that explores the beauty of nature through the eyes of children from all walks of life. Each chapter describes the sky from different perspectives—some children see it as a blanket of safety, others as a guide in the night, while some find comfort in its endless beauty. The sky, in all its forms, becomes a symbol of connection, reminding us that no matter where we are, we are all united under the same vast expanse. Through wonder, reflection, and a shared sense of belonging, this book gently invites young readers to appreciate the diversity of experiences while recognizing the unifying force of nature. With its vivid language and evocative imagery, this book celebrates the endless possibilities the sky offers, helping children understand the power of perspective, inclusion, and empathy.

In this riveting exploration of one of the Bible’s most iconic stories, Reaching for the Heavens delves into the epic saga of human ambition, pride, and divine intervention. The Tower of Babel, an ancient symbol of mankind’s desire to reach the heavens and become like God, stands as a monument to the dangers of overreaching and the fragile nature of human unity. 
Drawing on historical context, biblical insight, and rich storytelling, this book takes readers on a journey through the rise of the Tower—a colossal effort driven by the people’s collective will to conquer the heavens. But what began as an ambitious feat of engineering and unity soon spirals into confusion and chaos as God intervenes, scattering the people and confusing their languages. 
Through a mix of profound reflections and timeless lessons, Reaching for the Heavens unpacks themes of pride, human folly, the fragility of unity, and the consequences of overstepping divine boundaries. It’s a tale of both human greatness and downfall, and the reminder that, while we may strive to build empires, it is only by the grace of God that we truly stand united. 
Perfect for readers seeking inspiration and insight from ancient stories with modern-day relevance, this book is a powerful call to reflect on the pursuits of power, the need for humility, and the eternal quest to know our place in the vast design of creation. Will we build towers that reach to the heavens, or will we learn to walk humbly in the shadow of a far greater power?

The HILARIOUS new novel and the year’s most perfect festive gift – from million-copy bestselling author David Baddiel 
It used to be the most WONDERFUL time of the year, but for years Christmas has been taken over by Winterzone. 
All the things that made Christmas special are gone: the human connection, the baubles passed down through generations, even the rubbish cracker jokes. 
Instead, Christmas is run by robots, while 3D holograms of Santa Claus called Santavatars check if you’ve been naughty or nice – and on Christmas Eve, all of the presents are delivered by ZoneDrones instead of Santa’s reindeer! 
But when they stumble on a curious clue, eleven-year-old Etta and her friend Monty find themselves thrown into a fight to bring back Christmas. Racing against time and against the might of Winterzone, they must find the real Santa – before the true meaning of the festive season is lost forever . . . 
In this humorous adventure, Etta and Monty's action-packed quest to restore the true spirit of the holidays will captivate children and adults alike. As a top bestseller from the Sunday Times bestselling author, Virtually Christmas is a heartwarming family story that redefines the meaning of Christmas. 
For fans of Jeff Kinney (No Brainer), Larry Hayes (How to be a Kid Boss), Ben Miller (Diary of a Puss in Boots), Danny Wallace (The Day the Screens Went Blank), and Marta Kissi (The Friend Dilemma).
