'Angus and Ahmed love playing rock and roll and dream of following in the footsteps of ACDC. A local Battle of the Bands competition gives them the opportunity to show everyone just how much their band, Macca Dacca, rocks. Together with Mele as lead singer and Drew on bagpipes, they perform their own version of high voltage rock and roll. Will they rock the crowd? Or will the oily Skinner and his boy band beat them to first place?' (Publication summary)

This famous tale is loved by all flowers; It's told and retold around flowerbeds for hours; The star of the show is young Sunflower Sam; (More sunflower boy, than sunflower man). He leads his brave bunch in a fight for survival. Mad jack McCann is his bitter arch-rival; Read on for the greatest of all flower missions; And share in the richest of flora traditions.

Ritchie started up in bed. He switched on his reading lamp.

That noise! He was sure that noise came from straight above his head. He sank back and gazed up at the ceiling. To his astonishment he saw a small lump like a blister bulge out of the plaster.

He must be asleep.

This must be a dream.

His rubbed his eyes. His eyelids felt sore, so it didn't feel like a dream. But when he next looked up, that lump had disappeared. Vanished as quickly as it had come.

Now the plaster above his bed was as smooth as a cricket pitch. All he could see were lines in the paint spreading out like spider-webs. His bed-lamp threw strange shadows on the ceiling. They reminded him of cracks in the pavement. Or the bars on a jungle gym. Or maybe a trapeze - the kind he'd seen acrobats use on TV." (Source: Author's website)
