Eleven-year-old Tiffany Aching wants to be a real witch. But a real witch doesn't casually step out of her body, leaving it empty. Tiffany does - and there's something just waiting for a handy body to take over. Something ancient and horrible, which can't die. Now Tiffany's got to learn to be a real witch quickly, with the help of arch-witch Mistress Weatherwax, the truly amazing Miss Level. And the Nac Mac Feegle - the rowdiest, toughest, smelliest bunch of fairies ever to be thrown out of Fairyland for being drunk at two in the afternoon. They'll fight anything...

It's 1940 and only a narrow strip of sea lies between Great Britain and invasion. What's needed is a morale-boosting war film. As bombs start to fall on London, work begins on an almost-true tale of bravery and rescue at Dunkirk. But call-up has left the film industry with the jaded and the utterly unsuitable.There's Catrin Cole, copy-writer turned dialogue specialist; Ambrose Hilliard, third most popular British film star of 1924; Edith Beadmore, ex-seamstress and ex-Londoner, having been bombed twice; and Arthur Frith, whose peacetime job as a catering manager hasn't prepared him for sudden elevation to Special Military Advisor. In a city visited nightly by destruction, they must work together to produce a slice of the purest entertainment...

It's not easy being a witch, and it's certainly not all whizzing about on broomsticks, but Tiffany Aching – teen witch – is doing her best. Until something evil wakes up, something that stirs up all the old stories about nasty old witches, so that just wearing a pointy hat suddenly seems a very bad idea. Worse still, this evil ghost from the past is hunting down one witch in particular. He's hunting for Tiffany. And he's found her...

A stunning novel of the First World War Tragic, surprising and engaging in equal measure, Morpurgo's novel charts both the childhood of young Thomas Peaceful in the early years of the 20th century, and his eventual underage enlistment in the British army to help fight the First World War. It is, above all, a poignant story of war and about all of its many life-changing effects on those involved - also the brutality of the commanding regimes and the relentless squalor of trench warfare. It's not for the squeamish - Morpurgo tells it like it was and his honest insight is on every page for all to appreciate.
