In an alternative futuristic world where dragons are the souls of all the planets and moons, thirteen year old Lunar pairs with a new dragon to try to save the colony on Mars

A blend of genres works well to create an innovative, exciting space adventure. This is a gripping action from page one never lets up with characters that intrigue. A strong start to an epic new series and a brilliant read.

Oxford Children's Word of the Year - Kindness

See all

See all

Oxford Children's Dictionaries have declared "kindness" as the children's word of the year for 2024. They surveyed a group of 6,280 children aged between 6-14 years old, and kindness came out as the clear winner. Six in ten children choose kindness from a shortlist of three, including "artificial intelligence" and "conflict". With this in mind, we thought it would be nice to showcase some of our favourite titles that are either about kindness or feature characters who behave kindly.

"The library that Peters designed for us is perfect for our school. The students have been very excited by our new space, and often comment on how calm it feels. There is a real buzz around the library now, which wasn't there before."

Danielle Rose - Librarian , The Streetly Academy

"I would order with Peters every time. We have made several large orders in the last few years, completely replacing all our library books and they have made it so easy and exciting with a wonderful range of books. They are helpful, timely and brilliantly organised. I cannot recommend them highly enough!"

Caroline Urrutia - Literacy Coordinator, First Tower School, Jersey

"We have had a big drive on Reading for Pleasure and with the brilliant support of Peters we have been very successful in developing a Reading for Pleasure culture in school. So many more children are able to talk about favourite authors and make suggestions to each other about what to read next."

Katie Hutchison - Reading Leader, Scraptoft Valley Primary

"Peters took the time to understand our brief and really get to know the needs of our pupils. They then put together a wonderfully diverse and inclusive range of books so our pupils can see themselves reflected, read the classics, read a book in their home language. We now have a library that is just right for our pupils and will be a place where reading is loved!"

Rebecca Eaton - Headteacher, Conway Primary School, Birmingham
