PLANET OMAR / Zanib Mian
Welcome, readers, to the imaginative brain of Omar!
You might not know me yet, but once you open the pages of this book you’ll laugh so hard that snot will come out of your nose (plus you might meet a dragon and a zombie – what more could you want?).
My parents decided it would be a good idea to move house AND move me to a new school at the same time. As if I didn’t have a hard enough time staying out of trouble at home, now I’ve also got to try and make new friends. What’s worse, the class bully seems to think I’m the perfect target.
At least Eid’s around the corner which means a feast (YAY) and presents (DOUBLE YAY). Well, as long as I can stay in Mum and Dad’s good books long enough…
Planet Omar, F MIA, 211 pages.

Mais quand la lumière s’allume, son ombre lui glace le sang. Pourquoi est-elle différente des autres ?
Alors que le gouvernement commence à classer les individus selon leur Ombre, Damien comprend qu’il est en danger…
La guerre des ombres, R AYM, 177 pages.
