        Pray For Love

        by Barbara Cartland

        With all the trappings of wealth, but none of the money to maintain the large historic houses they inherit, society beauty Lady Galina More and her charismatic brother, Georgie, the Earl of Ranmore, are in despair. It seems that the only way to secure their family estate for future generations is to throw away any hopes of romance and marry well. But can a wealthy suitor for both brother and sister be found amongst Victorian London’s glittering parties and dazzling soirees? When Georgie meets American oil millionaire Craig Farlow, and his lovely daughter, Ellie-May, it seems that fate has finally intervened in a fortuitous way. Accepting the Earl’s offer to stay in his Park Lane home, father and daughter quickly settle into London life. Ellie-May and Galina strike up a close friendship, whilst Farlow inspires Georgie to make one last attempt to change his fortunes, this time amongst the oil fields of America. With the Earl away, the two girls are quickly inundated with worthy suitors, but both are determined to marry for love, or not at all. So when Galina gives her heart to handsome, but penniless, Lord Bramton she knows that their love is doomed if she is to save her family. Meanwhile Ellie-May faces her own romantic dilemmas; how can she know if the man of her dreams truly loves her, or is attracted only to her father’s money? Torn between love and duty, both girls pray for a way to get their hearts desire and find the lasting happiness they deserve.

        Saving The Tsars' Palaces

        by Christopher Morgan & Irina Orlova

        Millions of people annually visit the great country palaces built by the tsars in a circle round St. Petersburg. Created by artists from all over Europe, with untold serf labour at their disposal, the palaces were intended to impress and they do. Today, in the corner of most rooms, a single black and white photograph shows the same room in 1944, amid the smouldering wreckage found by Russian soldiers returning after the three-year siege of Leningrad. Forced to abandon the palaces, the Nazis vented their anger on the treasures they occupied.The story behind these photographs is in many ways more impressive even than the rooms themselves. It is the story of a relatively small band of talented Russians who were determined not to allow their country’s heritage to be swept away by all the horrors of the twentieth century. The palaces today are truly the work of Russians but restorers have to be self-effacing. There have been books about what they did but not about them. In Saving The Tsars’ Palaces, Christopher Morgan and Irina Orlova vividly recount the remarkable story of those who battled to save the palaces, not just during and after the war, but during the Revolution and the harsh times that followed.

        Blanca and the Barbarians

        by Hugo Tormenta, Clara Soriano

        Adrian, Blanca, Charlie, Daphne, Eric... No name starts with the same later, and each has a madcap story to tell. It's impossible to be bored in class 3-A, because the students come up with the most incredible adventures.   Blanca is a very rebellious girl. She gets in a ton of fights and she gets time out every two seconds. But it?s not her fault that bad words aren?t allowed! That?s why she decides to create her own secret language with hand signs in order to express herself the way she wants. At the beginning, it?s a total success, but a misunderstanding with a boy from another class will lead to a war without precedent at the craziest school in the world. Two sides battling against each other, the Gorillas and the Big Teeth. They?ll fight to conquer the other?s territory without remembering why they even began to fight in the first place. A fun story about misunderstandings and the sense-lessness of war in a school where anything can happen.   Anything could happen before the bell rings!
