The intended audience age of 8 to 10 isn't set in concrete. Sascha Martin's Rocket-Ship has been delighting children of all ages, and grown-ups, ever since its launch in 2016.

    Princess Adela has always been more than a little unconventional. She would rather work in her garden than find a husband-much to her step-mother's dismay-and Adela's version of happily ever after involves traveling the world and collecting rare plant specimens. So when the opportunity arises to attend a garden party thrown by Lady Hortensia, whose beauty is rumored to be rivaled only by the loveliness of her gardens, Adela cannot resist inviting herself, even if it means wearing a too-tight dress and impractical shoes. 
 
But the moment Adela sets eyes on Hortensia's garden, she knows something is amiss. Every single flower is in bloom-in the middle of October! Not only that, but a talking magpie is stealing the guests' jewels. Is it possible that magic is involved? Can Adela get to the root of the mystery before it's too late?

    There’s more to Frank than meets the eye… 
A quirky, witty and utterly brilliant picture book from the award-winning creator of Marshall Armstrong is New to our School, performed by Stephen Mangan. 
Frank is your typical grandad, but no one has a grandad like him… 
If you had to stand up and talk, for one whole minute, about a member of your family, who would you pick? Everyone else chooses really cool people, like Tom’s Uncle Marlon who plays drums in a band, or Hannah’s mum with her company car. But there’s nothing cool about grandad Frank… or is there? 
In this hilarious, wise and heart-warming story, awesome new talent David Mackintosh shows with a supreme lightness of touch just how much the older generation has to teach us, and how much fun learning from them can be. Perfect for young boys and girls from 3+. 
Stephen Mangan is best known for his role as Guy Secretan in Green Wing. 
Frank's adventures are not just humorous children's stories, they are top-notch educational content that kids will love. Each short fiction piece is filled with action and adventure, making learning fun and engaging. 
For fans of Peter H. Reynolds (When Things Aren't Going Right, Go Left), Tom Percival (Finn's Little Fibs), Kes Gray (Daisy and the Trouble With Unicorns), and Todd Parr (The Grandpa Book).
