Book of the month
This book will blow your mind: journeys to the extremes of science by Frank Swain
What's the nature of reality? Does the universe ever end? What is time and does it even exist? These are the biggest imagination-stretching, brain-staggering questions in the universe - and here are their fascinating answers.
From quantum weirdness to freaky cosmology (like white holes - which spew out matter instead of sucking it in), this book takes you on an epic journey to the furthest extremes of science, to the things you never thought possible.
The perfect read to celebrate the British Science Week, 6 to 15 March.
Children's book of the month
Secrets and Spies by Mary Rosambeau
Ten-year-old Rory Mackay dreams of being a fighter pilot. But before he can conquer the Nazis, he’ll have to deal with an enemy much closer to home.
When he and his friend Paul set out to discover what caused Rory's mother's unexplained fall, they stumble upon a dark secret. Battling bombs, smugglers, and bullies, Rory and Paul face a desperate race against time. Will they save the village?
Set against the backdrop of coastal Scotland, Secrets and Spies is a tale of love, friendship, and wartime conflict that will both move and entertain you.
