DOWNLOAD EBOOK →“[Evokes] both Jeanette Winterson and Ian McEwan . . . an elegiac and uplifting novel about the indissoluble bonds between mothers and daughters, and a reminder of how the imagination can set you free.” — The Guardian On Ruby’s thirteenth birthday, a wish she didn’t even know she had suddenly comes true: the couple who raised her aren’t her parents at all. Her real mother and father are out there somewhere, and Ruby becomes determined to find them. Venturing into the forest with nothing but a suitcase and the company of her only true friend—the imaginary Shadow Boy—Ruby discovers a group of siblings who live alone in the woods. The children take her in, and while they offer the closest Ruby’s ever had to a family, Ruby begins to suspect that they might need her even more than she needs them. And it’s not always clear what’s real and what’s not—or who’s trying to help her and who might be a threat. Told from shifting timelines, and the alternating perspectives of teenage Ruby; her mother, Anna; and even the Shadow Boy, The Doll Funeral is a dazzling follow-up to Kate Hamer’s breakout debut, The Girl in the Red Coat, and a gripping, exquisitely mysterious novel about the connections that remain after a family has been broken apart.

But Goran the bull is angry. He breaks loose from his stall, and charges down the barn and out into the yard. People gather from miles around to see the raging bull. But who will dare to cross Goran's path? Will he stay angry forever? Karl, a seven-year-old farm boy, has a plan. Can a very small boy tame a very big bull? A delightful story by acclaimed author Astrid Lindgren. The exquisitely detailed illustrations of wooden houses, farming families in their Sunday best and groves of white birch trees give a vivid sense of springtime on a Swedish farm of long ago.

Cymru"A culturally significant book that everyone, everywhere – irrespective of their sex – should definitely read" Buzz Magazine"Kim Moore's brave and open-hearted new collection does not offer any form of resolution to the significant questions it sets itself, but rather a working through of continuing anxieties and turmoil" Steve WhitakerMoore explores a world of femininity and abuse in this brave collection. Travelling between childhood and adult life, she documents the honest reality of living with a woman's body in a world that at times makes her miss the 'easy misogyny' of an office setting. Comparing her femininity to water Moore uncovers the flexibility that she is forced to perform throughout as she reflects on her previous experience in volatile situations: discussing and experiencing shame, victim-blaming, resentment and guilt. The collection gracefully flies through the experiences of relationships and how her trauma manifests as different animals inside her. All The Men I Never Married leaves a lasting impression of the realism behind Moore's relationships.
