What's an inner city kid like Dante doing in a posh old mansion house in the country? Having ADHD and dyslexia has 'won' him a place in a free summer school - so he can feel extra stupid, get into fights and be accused of stuff he didn't do.
Finding an old journal changes everything. Written by a girl who lived in Candlesham Hall a centuary ago it's really hard to read. Yet Dante has to keep reading - because Bea's journal is filled with clues to treasures hidden around the house and grounds.
And the treasures are still there...

Vivi Conway and the sword of legend
£7.99Vivi Conway and the sword of legend
The lake has been calling to twelve-year-old Vivi Conway. On the day she and her Mams will move from Wales to London, she sneaks out to investigate what is calling her there. Instead of a quiet swim, she finds Excalibur (much smaller than she expected), a ferocious monster (much scarier in real life than in her mythology books), a new friend (which she doesn’t want at all) called Dara and a ghostly dog named Gelert (who can talk). Gelert insists that Vivi is part of a magical group of children known as enaids who share the souls of witches from legend and must protect the world from being taken over by the evil King Arawn of the Otherworld. Oh, and now she can magically control water. With a little extra help from spiky Avery and sweet-hearted Chia, Vivi must come to terms with her magical destiny and be brave enough to embrace true friendship.
