What's a boy to do when he can't fall asleep, and it's very, very dark, and the sky outside is full of stars? Louis puts on his warm woolly hat and his red winter mittens and wishes on the brightest star he can see, "I want to live on a planet where the lights are on all night long." And -- swishity-swoosh -- his great adventure begins. He flies through the sky making quick stops at all the planets from Mercury to Pluto. But each falls short in some way -- Mars is too tiny, Venus is too cloudy. Soon, he's heading to the most beautiful planet in the sky -- Earth! And when he's once again safe and sound in his very own room, the night sky whispers a soft goodnight. Told in easily understood language, here's a very early introduction to astronomy, a first book of science fiction, and a comforting story for any one just a little bit afraid of the dark. Pre and early readers will be enchanted, and will love following Louis' journey on the brightly colored map shown on the endpapers.

Mondays Are Red

Hodder&Stoughton

It is Edinburgh, 1822, and young Robbie is eight years old when he witnesses his mother's pain and subsequent death from an operation - without anaesthetic - to remove a tumour from her breast at the hands of Dr Knox. Haunted by this terrible event, Robbie, his hapless father and baby sister Essie attempt to move on with their lives. But when Robbie's father loses all their money and disappears, Robbie is left to look after himself and his sister in the Edinburgh slums. Somehow he falls in with Burke and Hare, the two men whom Knox employs to 'collect' bodies for medical research. Robbie sees a way to avenge his mother's death. Convincing himself that Knox is having people killed for him to experiment on, Robbie eventually confronts him. But Robbie comes to realise that for all his hard-heartedness and corrupt methods, Knox's motives are ultimately for the good: to improve surgical conditions, and operate on patients with the greatest speed and therefore minimum risk. Robbie eventually trains to be a surgeon, finally giving meaning to his mother's tragic death.
