June 2005
This month sees the arrival of not one but TWO
sets of movie-tie in books:
Madagascar (from the makers of Shrek) looks
set to be the children’s film of the
summer, and Batman Begins
which has an impressive cast including Christian Bale,
Katie Holmes (Dawson's Creek) and Michael Caine. Check
out the accompanying novelisations and activity books
in the Book Zone…
Fans of Karen
McCombie (author of Stella
Etc. and Ally's World)
will be pleased to hear that Marshmallow
Magic and the Wild Rose Rouge is now out
in paperback.
Land of Elyon: Dark Hills
Divide is also out this month and has already
caused quite a stir over in America, climbing into the
top ten of the New York Times Bestsellers list. For
your chance to win a copy, visit the Competition
Zone! 
Geronimo Stilton
makes a return in All Because
of a Cup of Coffee and tries to win the
heart of a "beautiful rodent".
Collectors of the Horrible
Histories series have a treat in store - Rotten
Rulers is Terry
Deary’s latest title, so make sure you look
out for it in all good bookshops!
And finally, for teenage readers, why not choose Kate
Cann’s trilogy as your ‘books for the beach’
this Summer: Diving In, In the Deep
End and Sink or Swim.
