Will he like them? And, more importantly, will they like him? But his cousins - Tracey, Jackson, Tessa and Lolly - decide that Pete must pass a test before he can join their gang: the Good Fortunes Gang. Now Pete must face a scary ordeal that means facing up to his very worst fears - alone in the dark...

I think I'm going to be a Fortune again,' Lolly said. I mean really a Fortune.

After all, she's still their cousin, even if her mother, a Fortune, did marry a Bancroft. But then her parents have a terrible argument - a real, hot Fortune kind of fight - and her father leaves home.

A delightful short story collection with the Cats of Cuckoo Square quartet: Blossom’s Revenge. Blossom, a plump and contented cat, is horrified when six-year-old Prissy comes to stay with 'her' family. Suddenly there is nowhere she can go and doze without being disturbed; no place can she hide from Prissy. And when Prissy pulls her tail (no-one has done that since she was a little kitten!), Blossom makes up her mind: Prissy must go!

Lady Maisie might be just an 18th-century ghost but she is furious to discover that a middle-aged man is secretly writing a historical romantic novel about her two and a half centuries later. With a bit of unwitting help from 12-year-old Rowan, she sets out to defend her reputation and make the author change his soppy, helpless heroine to reflect the noble and courageous character she really was when she was alive, in Bonnie Prince Charlie’s time.

Poppy and Honey are going on holiday to France to stay with Honey's parents in an enormous castle called Chateau Lafayette. They can't wait.

But when they arrive, everything is not quite as it seems.

Poppy is putting on a play in her garden! But there's so much to do - she will need tickets and costumes and actors and a story. Her best friend Honey is taking part, and so are her cousins Daisy and Edward. Everyone in the village will be there for the performance, so Poppy wants to make sure everything is just perfect. But when Poppy starts ordering everyone around, the others name her Princess Bossy Boots, and won't help her any more.

When Grandpa gets ill Poppy can’t think about anything else because she is so worried about him. She is missing him such a lot that she can’t even concentrate on practicing for her gym club competition which is most unlike her as she is usually desperate to do the best that she can. When Poppy visits him in hospital she hardly recognizes Grandpa because he's looking so pale and thin, but when she sees his familiar stripey pyjamas and starts chatting away to him about what she's been up to.
