  Celebrating cricket, Windrush families & girls in sport
  Kerry-Ann loves cricket – of course she does! Her Jamaican grandpa taught her to play as soon as she could hold a bat. Whenever she can, Kerry-Ann heads to the local club with her friends.
  But now some of the club's elite cricketers want to make the club exclusive – just for themselves – and keep out Kerry-Ann and her team. So Kerry-Ann devises a daring plan to beat the bullies, and keep playing the game she loves.
  In this time-slip tale with a touch of magic, Kerry-Ann finds out about the obstacles that her grandparents faced when they first arrived in England as part of the Windrush generation...and how she must follow in their footsteps to fight for fair play, and to keep enjoying the game that is a part of her culture.
  A celebration of family, friendship, cricket, British Caribbean culture, Black British history and women's sport.

  In this hair-raising and hilarious novel by New York Times bestselling author Chuck Wendig, a boy must face his many fears to save his town from a cursed videotape—before “The Scariest Movie Ever Made” devours his friends and family. Ethan Pitowski is afraid of everything. Luckily, his best friends don’t mind, and when their entire class gets invited to watch a long-buried horror movie at the most popular boy in school’s house, Ethan’s friends encourage him to join in the fun. But when the “scariest movie ever made” reveals itself to be not just a movie about a monster, but a movie that is a monster, only a terrified Ethan escapes its clutches. Now he must find a way to stop the monster and save his friends (and also, um, get their heads back). With his signature balance of kid-friendly horror and humor, Chuck Wendig crafts a spookily heartfelt novel about anxiety, friendship, and finding your unique voice and inner strength.
