We're all at home right now, but Wakefield Press's YA list gives you the opportunity to travel to other worlds, one book at a time: whether that's a girl-detective romp on the Gold Coast and Byron Bay, a sweet, smart rom-com set in Port Adelaide, brothers coming of age on a farm on the Mallee, or gritty explorations of bullying and the black dog.
Buy any three Wakefield YA books for $59.95 and receive printed accompanying study notes. For a limited time!
This touching, carefully sparse picture book for young readers aims to help young people dealing with the loss of a loved one to process and talk about their grief.
