My Brother is a Superhero by David Solomons £6.99

A break from local authors to bring you this hilarious, fast-paced, action-packed new book to keep any bored 9-12 year olds laughing out loud this Easter Holiday!

Superhero obsessed Luke is in his tree house with his very boring older brother, Zack, but he desperately needs a wee. When he returns his undeserving, never-read-a-comic-in-his-life brother has been given superpowers and has orders to save not just one, but TWO, universes!

Luke is outraged! Zack doesn't even like comics! But, there are worlds out there needing to be saved and someone is going to have to make sure Zack does it properly even if he won't wear a cape. Then Zack is kidnapped by his arch nemesis leaving Luke and his friends with just five days to rescue him and save the worlds...

The Shepherd's Life by James Rebanks £8.99

A brief mention for this superb book which is now available in paperback. Destined to be a classic, The Shepherd's Life is about roots and belonging, landscape and traditions, family and history. It is unsentimental yet deeply moving. A quite extraordinary piece of writing and definitely not to be missed.
