A Pocketful of Stars

Product Information

NASA explores the unknown in air and space, innovates for the benefit of humanity, and inspires the world through discovery. I think it’s an important book for kids to read so they can evaluate their friendships and also remember to say I Love You yo their parents and not let their anger get the better of them. Safiya and her mum have never seen eye to eye. Her mum doesn’t understand Safiya’s love of gaming and Safiya doesn’t think they have anything in common. As Safiya struggles to fit in at school she wonders if her mum wishes she was more like her confident best friend Elle. But then her mum falls into a coma and, when Safiya waits by her bedside, she finds herself in a strange and magical world that looks a bit like one of her games. And there’s a rebellious teenage girl, with a secret, who looks suspiciously familiar . . . When I was younger I didn’t really follow authors, but rather series. I loved Harry Potter (and I still do), Eragon, Warrior Cats, and also The Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants and The Princess Dairies. I did collect Jacqueline Wilson books, and my firm favourites were The Illustrated Mum and Lola Rose. Aisha likes to write in a very organic way and so as part of this process new elements are woven into a story through the drafts. One of our roles as her editors is to make sure that everything that is there needs to be there and brings a necessary element to the story. The whole way through the editing process – from first draft through to final edits – we have regular chats about the story. These are really fun, productive and creative and make sure we’re all coming from the same place.

I’m not a gamer but I know how important gaming can be to a lot of people and I’m so glad they entered that competition! I would have liked to have known if they won or not! Keep collections to yourself or inspire other shoppers! Keep in mind that anyone can view public collections - they may also appear in recommendations and other places.I really loved the way this book dealt with friends and standing up for yourself and other people and the bravery it takes to be yourself and not ashamed for liking things and having interests and finding friends that like you for you and share similar or the same interests!!! So happy Safiya found True Friends!!! Also glad they had a Studio Ghibli movie marathon! Safiya and her mum have never seen eye to eye. Her mum doesn’t understand Safiya’s love of gaming and Safiya doesn't think they have anything in common. As Safiya struggles to fit in at school she wonders if her mum wishes she was more like her confident best friend Elle. But then her mum falls into a coma and, when Safiya waits by her bedside, she finds herself in a strange and magical world that looks a bit like one of her games. And there’s a rebellious teenage girl, with a secret, who looks suspiciously familiar … That being said, the ending did make me cry quite a bit (multiple tears!) so that is a point in it's favour. The main character, Safiya, seems to mature quite a bit through the book, especially for someone her age (I believe she is around 13?), and in my opinion was a pretty solid narrator.

Apparently they say it seven times in the first seven minutes!’ She pauses, looking between me and my best friend Elle. We glance at each other and frown. ‘Seven!’ Mum repeats, like this should mean something to us. ‘The witching number?’ She looks disappointed. ‘Oh, never mind.’ Very heart warming and touching. There was both a happy and a sad ending, but I loved it. About the loving bond of a mother and daughter and how the daughter thinks that they're different with nothing similar between them. But she finds out soon enough that in fact the burning fire inside them is the same - glowing red and orange.anyways this is a really beautiful book about family and friendship and growing up and saying goodbye and also dealing with grief and loss. I can still make the whole place shimmer | Embroidered Sweatshirt | Taylor Swift, Bejeweled, Merch, Midnights, Swiftie This book is a beautiful, wistful fantasy about mothers and daughters and the excruciatingly painful tangles that can grow up between them - and it's also about finding yourself and your own purpose even when it's not what your mother or your friends you to be. It's a book about growing up, and the way that the magic mixes with Safiya's contemporary London life (in an almost magical-realist way) is just perfect. It's one of the only books that made me cry at the end. Heartwarming and leaves you in tears. Really good and I recommend it.
