Four units designed to help older children develop their creativity and to consider the different aspects of increasingly complex issues. Each unit is an original poem, with activities to stimulate and challenge. Without feeling like schoolwork, the writing tasks have also been framed for consistency with GCSE requirements.

Four units, each with a different theme. The units have an original poem and educational resources to stimulate your child's creativity and their thinking around a range of issues. Fun and thought-provoking, these activities also reinforce and develop literary skills.

Rishi's in year 10 of Chestnut Wood High School. He's handsome, smart and scared. Scared of what? Actually, many things. Part of his problem is he's deputy leader of the Black Blud Eagles, a vicious Sikh gang at war with Muslim gangs, but Jaggy, their leader and Rishi's best friend, demands loyalty to the death. And that's only part of his problem. Help arrives in the form of Anisha. She knows what to do. Anisha seems very sweet, but can she be trusted, or does she have plans of her own? 'Once' is suitable for readers AGE 13 AND OVER. Price includes UK postage.

'Red' is a must-have for anyone who enjoys poetry. Starting with the stunning 'The Ballad of David Peters' and ending with the epic and disturbing 'Please', this is a collection which is often funny and always thought provoking. Andy Conner is an original thinker and compelling writer. In 'Red', he displays a finely-honed style which always places the reader inside the poem, then heightens the experience via his uncanny knack of picking exactly the right word for each moment. 'Red' is NOT SUITABLE FOR CHILDREN UNDER FIFTEEN. Price includes UK postage
