Everyone was saying that an electrical wire had shorted out in the middle of the street the night before and that it had got so hot it melted the pavement. Zach saw the hole in the ground and he saw the downed power wires, but he knew the wires hadn’t caused all that damage.

Ok. This is really, really exciting news for anyone who loved Artichoke Hearts by Sita Brahmachari - which, let's face it, is a lot of us! It was a book that made us all laugh and cry, full of characters that we won't ever forget. When Sita announced to us that she wanted to write another book about Mira we were over the moon.

So here it is - the sequel, Jasmine Skies, and it's out on March 29th. 

Here is the gorgeous book trailer. It was created by Shaun Cobley who worked on the films War Horse and The Iron Lady - no big deal! We are so excited about it we have been watching it in the office on loop so we can't wait to hear what you think of it.

You can pre-order your copy of Jasmine Skies here.
