        Henry Hamlet's Heart

        by Rhiannon Wilde

        I’m losing it because I kissed you / Because I kissed you I might lose you.   Henry Hamlet doesn’t know what he wants after school ends. It’s his last semester of Year Twelve and all he’s sure of is his uncanny ability to make situations awkward. Luckily, he can always hide behind his enigmatic best friend, Len. They’ve been friends since forever, but where Len is mysterious, Henry is clumsy; where Len is a heart-throb, Henry is a neurotic mess. Somehow it’s always worked.   That is, until Henry falls. Hard. For the last person he imagined.   From an exciting debut author comes this passionate story of growing up, letting go, and learning how to love.

        by Steven Herrick

        The sun is shining and today feels like an adventure, only one I can go on whenever I want because I have a bicycle and friends and a city just waiting to be explored.   With their new teacher’s help, the kids in class 5D ride to school together in a bicycle bus. Olivia can fix a puncture in no time and Max can ride on one wheel. Lily wishes she wasn’t quite so wobbly and Jordi’s been waiting forever to ride on the road. Dylan has a speedy getaway from alley cats, Dabir’s glad to be part of a group and Zoe’s bike even has a name (Esmeralda). Everyone loves their new way of getting to school.     But there’s a narrow stretch on Fisher Road with no white line to separate the cyclists from the traffic. Zoe and Max decide they need to make it right, even if that means breaking a few rules.     Award-winning author Steven Herrick’s latest verse novel is an uplifting ode to bike-riding, the environment and fixing the future.
