Be Not Blind to Its Touch - a contemporary novella for older teens. Whereas most books set in our real world are slanted for girls, this story centers on a boy – his issues, his anger – a youth on the threshold of manhood, unprepared to deal with a rage that threatens to consume him. Pete is a seventeen-year-old caught in a life of anger at his father who was convicted and sent to the penitentiary when Pete was eight. The past nine years have been filled with resentment at the town that has taunted him as the son of a jailbird. The words 'you’re not welcome here' echo in his ears.But there are those who do care about him – who move in the shadows. And when Pete crosses the line, they fight desperately in a race against time to try to save him from the very real consequences of his lawless actions.

The door at the foot of the tree is a fictional story about a young girl who runs away into the forest and meets some unlikely inhabitants. The book contains interweaving storylines and is told through three different voices: the narrator, the characters and the author herself. Throughout the book, the recommended Year 5 and Year 6 SATs spelling words are used and highlighted in bold. This will give the children a chance to experience reading these words in context, allowing them to commit these to their permanent vocabulary more easily. The book demonstrates the wide range of vocabulary, punctuation and grammatical techniques that are expected to be known by Year 6 children. The vocabulary used is challenging in places, such as the use of idioms, with the aim of introducing the reader to many new words and phrases that they may not have come into contact with otherwise.
