Tweaked a booklet shared originally I think by the great Lyndsey Dyer @RealGingerella with help from @funkypedagogy recent guidance and support on the AQA 2026 changes, and using a resource from @Mathew_Lynch44. I hope very much you don't mind. https://t.co/X2mglCmS8o

This is a story set at the time of the Yorkshire ripper. It's a story about friendships, community and family. "Miv" is a great main character. @elockwoodmcr I think you'd enjoy this.

Would you play with time from a cafe to meet a person from your past or future? You only have until your coffee gets cold. Toshikazu Kawaguchi reminds us to appreciate the present and the moments leading to our futures before people become stuck in our past.

Kate Mosse is a great storyteller and I look forward to reading more of her books. The Ghost Ship took me away and I loved it.
