Synopsis

An old enemy returns to pursue a vicious vendetta against Wrecker the Weasel and the Rotten Shed Gang in ‘Wrecker the Weasel and the Watermill Plot’, the second adventure of the British countryside’s most notorious egg thieves! Expect rollicking adventure, humour, and touching comradeship as the hapless smugglers do their best to outsmart the plans of the psychotic fox, Mandrake.    Against the background of a summer heatwave, Mandrake and his foxes set out to ruin Wrecker’s egg-smuggling operations, destroying birds’ nests, stealing eggs, and holding water sources to ransom. Before long Mandrake allies with sinister underworld figures in London in a bid to crush Wrecker’s supporters in the city. Facing the loss of his business, his gang, his friends, and ultimately his life, Wrecker must hope for a miracle of deliverance. Strangely, the ghost of an opportunity becomes apparent at the old watermill, and in the millpond which sits directly above Mandrake’s countryside headquarters. A well-engineered flood couldn’t possibly be the answer to Wrecker’s problems… could it?

In this adventure, pirates have cracked the security of the Solar Alliance and war has broken out in space. Tom, Roger and Astro are trapped tight in the center of all the action when Tom goes undercover on the pirate leader's spaceship. In their most dangerous and action-packed adventure, yet, the cadets must save the Solar Alliance and themselves.

    Fíasól is an eight-year-old traveller. She celebrated her birthday in pouring rain in a trailer tent in the east of Iceland and gave everyone on the campsite a piece of cake and hot chocolate. Fíasól says that she’s spent half her life sleeping in a tent but Mum says that’s just rubbish. In the hallway at home is a small suitcase that nobody is allowed to touch. Fíasól has stuffed everything into it she might need, should she suddenly have to go travelling. 
    “This family is always going off here there and everywhere,” she says. “I may as well have my suitcase ready if I need to whizz off somewhere. One simply lives in a suitcase, always off somewhere, such a nomad,” she says, shaking her head precociously. She has sometimes heard her grandmother say this when she and her grandfather come back from the Canary Islands.  
    “You don’t even know what a nomad is,” says Pippa laughing. 
    “Yeah, a nomad is a wanderer and I am a wanderer,” replied Fíasól, pleased with herself.  
    Fíasól still lives on Green Grove in Grasby with her mum, dad and her sisters Pippa and Bidda. She also lives there with the noisybags and lazybones Hansína and Jensína who bark non-stop when they’re not sleeping. Then they lie on their backs in the basket in the kitchen, snoring like little monsters. 
    One day there was an awful lot of rain in Green Grove and Fíasól was bored. She painted her face to look like an American native, using yellow, green and blue face paints, and then she implored her mum to let her paint her too. 
    “Please Mum, let me change you into a native American chief,” Fíasól begged, while her mum kept working on her computer. 
    “No, absolutely not,” Mum muttered, preoccupied. 
    “So you’re just a boring old hag,” said Fíasól moodily. “Can’t be bothered, don’t know how to play and don’t want to do anything that’s fun.”

    Have you recently lost your beloved pet, or do you feel that painful moment approaching? 
    When you lose a pet, you don’t just lose an animal — you lose a part of yourself. 
    Years of unconditional love, shared moments, and comforting daily routines suddenly vanish into a deafening silence that no one ever really prepares you for. 
    They tell you things like “it was just a pet” or “time heals all wounds”, but those who haven’t loved so deeply could never understand the pain. 
    Meanwhile, life goes on around you as if nothing happened. And you’re left trying to figure out how to move forward when everything around you — every corner, every habit — reminds you of them. 
    We’ll meet again at the Rainbow is a heartfelt and compassionate guide created to walk alongside you through this journey, and to help you gently turn the pain into a memory full of love. 
    What you’ll find in We’ll meet again at the Rainbow:Why your pain feels so intense—andwhy that’s completely normalHow to overcome guilt and stop asking yourself “What if…?”The stages of grief: what to expect and how to move through them mindfullyPractical techniques used by psychologists and therapists to help restore emotional balanceHow to keep your bond with your dog alive—even after their physical absenceWhy welcoming another dog does NOT mean betraying the one you lostA set of SELF-HELP TOOLS to ease the pain and help you breathe againBegin to rediscover serenity—one page at a time.
