Here are new titles from books in existing series that I have absolutely enjoyed reading and most importantly so do the kids they were written for.
The Undys: On the Move Wagner Michael & Gus Gordon (Penguin books)
Oh No! ... Josh Undy and his dad (Fillmmore) have to move out of their public housing apartment. They have just four weeks to find a new dwelling. Manny work has been soooo good that they a re making too much money! So what do they do ... well in-between searching for a new apartment they do a lot! Josh and his friends go crab racing, Josh and his dad learn the art of trampoline dodge ball, and of course when they do find a place to move to ... they have to move all their things - and that calls for some very special strong help!
This is a fun book with short crazy linked tales that kids, especially boys love giggling over!
Battle Boy #3 & #4 - Destroy Troy and Bloodaxe Charlie Carter (Pan Macmillan)
These titles are fantastic for boys - especially those younger readers just starting on chapter books. In each book in this adventure series Battle Boy is flung back into time, in his specially designed body suit (AKA SimulSkin) and with his Battle Watch with the latest downloaded operating system that has all the information for the battle in which he lands. In each case his task is to operate as a HD-CD (Human Data Collecting Device) but not everything goes according to plan.
In Destroy Troy Napoleon Augustus Smythe (AKA Battle Boy 005) lands in 1185 AD has to find out if the Greeks really did leave the Trojan horse outside the city and in Bloodaxe he lands in Dark Age England 954 and is flung into a Viking battle.
Short action packed chapters make this history fun!
Ranger's Apprentice 9: Halt's Peril John Flanagan (Random House)
These are great reads with well developed characters. They are filled with action, mystery and tensions and will have the readers begging for more. Lots of solid reading here in this book for older competent readers.
Following on from the Kings of Clonmel (#9) Halt, Horace and Will are in pursuit of the dangerous cult leader Tennyson and his followers from the Outsider cult. This time Halt really is in peril, his life hangs in the balance as Will and Horace attempt to save him but they are forced to make very heavy decisions. Tension and drama throughout!
