Two friends are signed by Rockin’ Records, fall out due to the pressures of stardom, make up and go straight to the top of the charts. Meanwhile a spot of bonding over football ends in a glossary and a quiz.

The stories fit seamlessly into the Boys Rule! and Girls Rock! series to build confident readers; the authors are primary pupils inspired by the books’ approach.

So congratulations to publisher Rising Stars’ rising stars: Amelia Mullet (11), Charlotte Hollinshead (11) and Molly Hyson (12), entered by St Dominic’s School, Brewood, Staffordshire; Alex Read (11) and Samuel Pote (10) of Gorseland Primary School, Martlesham Heath, Suffolk; Daniel Taylor (12) representing Dudley Wood Primary, West Midlands.

The next project by Rising Stars is a book of jokes from primary playgrounds’ finest wits. There’s a taster in the Special Collection: “Why do French people eat snails? Because they don’t like fast food”.

Tell us another, and another, and another Geraldine Brennan
