Hector the Protector:
Hector wakes up one morning to discover that he's the world's newest superhero. He's not scared of cats, he loves the smell of dog poo and he can spew on command - and these are only some of his super powers.
Working under the impressive name of Hector the Protector, he puts together a superhero outfit, complete with yoga tights, welding glasses and a shower cape. His look is fearsome, as is his smell. When Hector takes on the Drain Boys gang to stop them from terrorising the neighbourhood, the greatest mud fight in history takes place, and Hector the Protector is the superhero we all dream of.
A hilarious chapter book for 7-11 yr olds.
Spin the Bottle:
Jessi Matthews is a mad keen hockey player and Dave is mad keen on her. But Jessi's not interested. She's too busy investigating the weird happenings in her street. People disappearing. Frantic messages on bottles. And the strange comings and goings of the creepy Dog House.
Who would have thought a simple game of Spin the Bottle could send Jessi's life spinning in unexpected directions - hurtling out of control - and headfirst into danger.
A mystery for 10-14 yr olds.
