What's the Difference... Between Me and You?
A highly original picture book with delicate characterful drawings and an important central message: everyone is different and difference is exciting. Taking us on an enchanting journey from The Scottish Highlands to Parisian cafés, from Kew Gardens to Minnesota, Christina Findlay’s book is a celebration of diversity in all of its various forms. Similar in style to Quentin Blake and Charlie Mackesy, with a Scottish twist!
Suitable for ages 3+
A tale of unlikely friendship set against the backdrop of the Roman invasion of Scotland, by award-winning children's writer Victoria Williamson.
Scotland, 158 AD, is a divided country. On one side of the Antonine wall, thirteen-year-old Felix is trying to become a good Roman soldier like his father. On the other, twelve-year-old Jinny is vowing revenge on the ‘metal men’ who have invaded her Damnonii tribe’s homeland. At the Damnonii’s sacred circle of standing stones, her planned attack on Felix goes badly wrong, awakening a legend that threatens to bring fire and destruction down on them all. Can Jinny and Felix overcome their differences and soothe the stones back to sleep before it’s too late?
Suitable for ages 9+
The first book in Janet McGiffin's Empress Irini Series, a stylish, fast-paced young adult series set in the Roman Empire of the East, centred on Irini of Athens: the only woman to rule in her own right in Roman and Byzantine history.
Seventeen-year-old Thekla needs her quick wits and knife to track down her betrothed, a soldier who has left her at the altar for the third time. Elias the monk travels with her to Constantinople where she meets Irini of Athens, an extraordinarily beautiful orphan who has been brought by powerful Emperor Constantine to marry his son, Co-Emperor Leon. The two women join forces to survive this vigorous, glittering capital of the Roman Empire of the East, rocked by division and strife. But will Thekla help the ambitious and ruthless Irini of Athens find the power that she craves?
Suitable for ages 14+
