Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This educational story presents a unique blend of facts in a fictional tale to introduce children to the days of the week. There are many elements weaved into this rhyming adventure including feelings we can all relate to. The characters in this story represent the actual days of the week and the hidden power within to make our day the best it can be—a Super-Duper Day! Each day has the day of the week spelled out in the body of the character. This is a fun find for children as they explore each character and discover the letters. For example, Super-Duper Monday has big swooping M's for his hair, an O for his nose, N for his mouth, D on his chest, A is in the body with a belt going across, and the Y is the pockets and the legs. The ending has a surprise for both children and adults when the most important fact of all is revealed—where time begins!

Book excerpt: Vic Keegan's Lost London (2) is the second of two books that together have taken over six years of research and are still yielding surprises Vic had no idea that the mundane Highbury and Islington station used to look like an Italian Palazzo before being shamefully pull down, nor that there was an extraordinary cricket match in Walworth between a team from Greenwich with only one leg and the other from Chelsea with only one arm, nor that in 1810, a black bare knuckle fighter was swindled out of being world champion by white subterfuge. There are dozens of similar tales which he hopes you will enjoy. The author spent most of his working life at the Guardian writing among other things a fortnightly economics column for nearly 25 years before finishing off with a weekly column on consumer technology ranging from mobile phones to virtual worlds. He has written six poetry books including London My London with over 80 poems about the capital and the Thames. He is married to Rosie with two children Dan and Chris.

Book excerpt: ‘London is a giant kaleidoscope, which is forever turning. Take your eye off it for more than a moment and you’re lost.’ Robert Elms has seen his beloved city change beyond all imagining. London in his lifetime has morphed from a piratical, bomb-scarred playground, to a swish cosmopolitan metropolis. Motorways driven through lost communities, accents changing, skyscrapers appearing. Yet still it remains to him the greatest place on earth. Elms takes us back through time and place to myriad Londons. He is our guide through a place that has seen scientific experiments conducted in subterranean lairs and a small community declare itself an independent nation; a place his great-great-grandfather made the Elms’ home over a century ago and a city that has borne witness to world-changing events.
