A new revised and illustrated edition of the acclaimed dystopian YA thriller set in a future world where cats are strictly controlled and marketed at huge prices. Written in Cardiff, Wales by the award-winning author of over sixty titles Jon Blake, the novel tells the story of Jade, a law-abiding teenage girl, who finds an unregistered and therefore illegal cat in her back garden, takes it in, and ends up on the run from the law with her feral friend Kris. Rutgers described the book as 'a compelling read' while School Librarian called it 'a very satisfying and brave book that does not go in for easy answers'. Originally published by Hodder in the UK and Albert Whitman in the US, the book was selected by the International Literacy Association for its Young Choices list, and by Bookbag for its top ten teen romances. The new edition also features beautiful artwork by Cardiff illustrator Rebecca Harry.

Life is never boring now that Jams and his family have a monkey to look after. Jams and his mum love Thimble, but Dad is determined to get rid of him - to a zoo, a school, even a demolition site. But when Jams and his dad are in mortal danger, Thimble proves once and for all why he is a Monkey Superstar! Thimble is very clever and very naughty - and just the best friend Jams has been waiting for. Illustrated by Martin Chatterton

Jams lives with his mum, dad and his best friend and biggest headache, Thimble, a hugely clever monkey who one of Dad's biggest fans. (Don't tell anyone what Thimble did with the superglue...) When Mum organises a house-swap holiday in France, Jams' one job is to remember the right house number. What can possibly go wrong, once Thimble and Dad find in the borrowed house a speedboat, a drill and a makeshift burglar outfit. But somehow Thimble always saves the day.

When Mum goes away for the week, Jams, Dad and Thimble the monkey are left with just thirty quid for the groceries. Dad makes a shopping list, but when Thimble gets hold of the supermarket trolley, everything goes bananas. Soon the intrepid trio are so desperate they will do anything for money ... anything! Will Dad end up selling his soul to make ends meet, or can Jams and his monkey pal save the day? Third in the Laugh Out Loud Book Awards shortlisted Thimble Monkey Superstar series from Jon Blake.

Fourth book in the series which began with Thimble Monkey Superstar, shortlisted for the Laugh Out Loud awards. Once again Thimble causes chaos in Dawson Castle, the bungalow home of failed children's author Douglas Dawson and his disabled son Jams. This time, however, there is a new character on the scene: Bunches Rattigan, a feisty, football-playing, internet-savvy girl from Mars (or so Jams sees her). When Bunches sets her sights on Thimble, and Jams makes an ill-advised bet with her, the scene is set for a struggle for Thimble's affections which leads to both hilarious and downright dangerous adventures. Jon Blake, author of over 60 children's books including the quarter-million selling 'You're a Hero Daley B', once more teams up with brilliant illustrator Martin Chatterton - a partnership which stretches back to the nineties, when they were shortlisted for the Children's Book Award. The result is a whole lot of fun and a few things to think about as well, particularly on the subject of disability.

Read for FREE with Kindle Unlimited Codependency: A step-by-step guide learn how to let it go and love yourself again Do you want to learn about Codependency?Do you want to learn how to let it go and love yourself again? Codependency is a term that was coined a few decades ago. Among addiction counselors, it was noticed that the caretakers of alcoholics, as well as drug addicts all, had very similar emotional symptoms. Further research indicated that caretakers share traits of enabling personalities, in that they tend to lose themselves while engaging in the care of another addicted person. Codependent then implies that one is dependent psychologically on one who is dependent on a substance, behavior or another thing. Codependents are those amongst us who worry obsessively about others. Most codependents were emotionally abused as children. They were made to feel psychologically invisible, and very often suffered various forms of abuse, including physical, sexual verbal or psychological. The consistent theme amongst codependents is that they can think for others, but not for themselves. Codependents pair off in relationships. It is not possible to have a codependent relationship with one who is not codependent. Noncodependents do not appreciate feeling smothered, overly relied upon for their partner's sense of satisfaction, and do not enjoy empty praise. Codependents tend to whine and complain rather than act on their behalf. They complain about how sorry they feel for themselves and wallow on sounding as if they prefer the world see them as the martyrs they falsely believe that they are. Here is a preview of what you'll learn... What is codependency? Is being a codependent the sign of a bad relationship?

What is credit score? A credit score is a numerical rating used by lenders in the loan approval decision process. Credit scoring uses statistical models to evaluate credit risk by comparing credit information about a consumer to the credit performance of others with similar credit reports. Credit bureaus keep track of everyone's credit history information - things like how many credit cards you have and how much you ower, whether you pay your bills on time; where you work and for how long. Credit scores may also be used to determine the interest rate you get on a loan. By using credit score, lenders and creditors treat each person objectively because the same standards apply to everyone. Credit scores do not include race, religion, national origin, gender or marital status as factors. A credit score is a number of 3 digits that lenders user as an indicator of your capacity to meet financial obligations such as mortgage payments car payments, credit card bills, loan repayment etc. It basically tells lenders how likely you are to pay your debts. It is usually a number between 300 and 850. The higher the credit score, the less risky you are to lenders. And the less risky you are to lenders, the better interest rates you will get. Also, the higher your credit score is, the more chances you have in getting a loan. Sound simple right? Here is a preview of what you'll learn What is credit score?

Read for FREE with Kindle Unlimited Self-Compassion: A step-by-step guide to embrace your soul and love yourself more Do you want to learn about self-compassion?Do you want to understand how to embrace your soul and love yourself again? Having compassion for oneself is really no different than having compassion for others. Think about what experience of compassion feels like. First, to have compassion for others you must notice that they are suffering. If you ignore that homeless person on the street, you can't feel compassion for how difficult his or her experience is. Second, compassion involves feeling moved by others suffering so that your heart responds to their pain(the word compassion literally means to "suffer with"). When this occurs, you feel warmth, caring, and kindness to others when they fails or make mistakes, rather than judging them harshly. Finally, when you feel compassion for another(rather than mere pity), it means that you realise the suffering, failure and imperfection is part of the shared human experience. "There but for fortune go I". Self-compassion involves acting the same towards yourself when you are having a difficult time, fail or notice something you don't like about yourself. Instead of just ignoring your pain with a "stiff upper lip" mentality, you stop to tell yourself "this is really difficult right now" how can I comfort and care for myself in this moment? Instead of mercilessly judging and criticising yourself for various inadequacies or shortcomings, self-compassion means you are kind and understanding when confronted with personal failings, after all, who ever said you were supposed to be perfect? Here is a preview of what you'll learn... What is self-compassion? Let go of self-talk, behaviours and people that do not serve you Why are some people compassionate towards others but not to themselves? How to manage stress? How to overcome rejection?
