A Wrinkle in Time

Puffin Classics: the definitive collection of timeless stories, for every child.

We can’t take any credit for our talents. It’s how we use them that counts.

When Charles and Meg Murry go searching through a ‘wrinkle in time’ for their lost father, they find themselves on an evil planet where all life is enslaved by a huge pulsating brain known as ‘It’.

Meg, Charles and their friend Calvin embark on a cosmic journey helped by the funny and mysterious trio of guardian angels, Mrs Whatsit, Mrs Who and Mrs Which. Together they must find the weapon that will defeat It.

A groundbreaking and inspiring story of travel through time and space to battle a cosmic evil which has sold millions of copies and transformed children’s literature. Winner of the Newbery Medal.

Charlotte’s Web

Puffin Classics: the definitive collection of timeless stories, for every child.

On foggy mornings, Charlotte’s web was truly a thing of beauty . Even Lurvy, who wasn’t particularly interested in beauty, noticed the web when he came with the pig’s breakfast. And then he took another look and he saw something that made him set his pail down. There, in the centre of the web, neatly woven in block letters, was a message. It said: SOME PIG!

This is the story of a little girl named Fern, who loves a little pig named Wilbur – and of Wilbur’s dear friend, Charlotte, a beautiful large grey spider. When Fern’s uncle decrees that Wilbur must become bacon, Fern, Charlotte, Templeton the rat and all Wilbur’s farmyard friends come up with an ingenious plan to fool the humans, and save their very special pig.

Joyful, funny, and deeply moving, Charlotte’s Web is a story about the power of friendship, and celebrating what makes everyone special. It is rightly heralded as one of the greatest children’s books ever written.

“E. B. White’s writing is perfect… And Garth William’s muted illustrations are entirely without fault. Whether read aloud or solo, this is a book well deserving of its ‘classic’ status.” – The Children’s Book Review

Let It Snow

The #1 New York Times bestseller is now a major Netflix film starring Kiernan Shipka, Shameik Moore, Odeya Rush and Isabela Moner.

It’s Christmas Eve and the worst blizzard for fifty years has blanketed Gracetown. But as well as snowflakes, love is in the air – and appearing in the most unexpected ways . . .

Who’d have thought a freezing hike from a stranded train would end with a delicious kiss from a charming stranger? Or that a trip to the Waffle House through four feet of snow could lead to romance with an old friend? Or that the path to true love begins with a painfully early morning shift at Starbucks?

Touching, hilarious and filled with festive cheer, the magic of the holiday season shines on these three interconnected tales of love, romance and breathtaking kisses. The perfect book for a cold winter’s night for any fan of The Fault in Their Stars, The Sun is Also a Star and Eleanor and Park.
