Ant Party by Ross Montgomery and Sarah Warburton (3-7 years)
It’s another busy day at the ant hill. The farmer ants are collecting food, the worker ants are building tunnels and the soldier ants are guarding the queen. But for Andy, it’s a very special day: it’s his birthday! Word spreads for his “small gathering” and, in no time at all, thousands of ants arrive to bust their best moves and tuck into dips. But as the party gets into full swing an unwanted guest arrives… The ants must work together to save the day (and the dips!) in this charming, original comedy that will empower even the shyest of us all to shine and make a difference.

Loki: A Bad God’s Guide to Unruly Activities by Louie Stowell (7-12 years)
A brand-new type of book for Loki fans, featuring short stories, quizzes, puzzles and oodles of activities to keep even the most mischievous minds entertained.
When Loki plays one too many poo-related pranks around the house, Heimdall sets him the challenge of finding ways to entertain himself that don’t involve so much mess. (Or poo.) Easy! Loki is the most handsome and clever of gods, and with the help of his friends Valerie and Georgina (and Thor, who is not a friend of Loki), he gathers together a glorious collection of quizzes, puzzles, games and activities.
Discover new and ingenious ways to insult your friends and family with the Insult Generator, try to outsmart Valerie (difficult!) or Thor (easy!) with quizzes on Norse mythology, or solve Georgina’s secret codes and hunt for Loki in various animal disguises. There’s activities for everyone – and Loki might even reveal some of those tantalizing long stories he’s always promising he’ll tell later…
