Wonka
Before Charlie, before the Chocolate Factory, comes a story of invention and imagination . . .
Ever since he was a child, Willy Wonka had dreamed of making chocolate and sharing it with the world.
As a young man, he arrives at the world-famous Galeries Gourmet, determined to change the world one delectable bite at a time.
But hounded by a trio of jealous chocolatiers, and tricked into a lifetime of washhouse drudgery, Wonka will need a little luck and a whole lot of magic – along with some help from a few friends – to fulfil his destiny.
Because if you’re lucky enough to meet Willy Wonka, anything is possible.
This delicious tale of dreams, friendship and chocolate is based on the major motion picture, Wonka, directed by Paul King, who created the story and wrote the screenplay with Simon Farnaby. The story is brought to the page by bestselling author Sibéal Pounder. This edition of Wonka is brought to life with brand-new illustrations by Emily Jones.

The New Flesh
It had taken, at most, three seconds for the elevator to pass downwards from the sixteenth to the twelfth ... Mr Meldrum had ceased to be, and something hideously different took his place. A man convinced that he has developed a phantom beak edges towards a terrible metamorphosis. Interlopers dismissing the superstitions of hare-women in the countryside pay for their scepticism with blood. The cruel jokes of a girl at the village festival of the Green Man lead her to a crueller transfiguring in the woods. Tracing the quintessential horror concept of the strange transformation from the Victorian era through to the modern day, horror writer, expert and enthusiast Mark Morris presents a thrilling selection of metamorphic tales. Including stories of bestial shapeshifters such as the tiger-men, fox spirits and werewolves of world folklore, this collection also presents some of the weirder shifts of the horror genre, where a flatworm masquerades as a boy, a girl becomes one with a bridge, and a babe-in-arms and her beekeeper father come to reflect the creatures of the hives.

George és a Szuper Szirup
A KIS GEORGE NAGYMAMÁJA EGY GONOSZ BANYA!
A legtöbb nagymama kedves, szereti az unokáit és finom süteményekkel kényezteti őket. Sajnos akad azonban egy-két kivétel.
Szegény kis George-nak épp egy kivételesen borzalmas nagymama jutott. Folyton szidja, ijesztgeti a kisfiút, parancsolgat neki, főleg, amikor kettesben maradnak a házban.
Egy nap, amikor George apukája a földeken dolgozik, anyukája elmegy bevásárolni, a nagyi pedig szokás szerint élvezettel kínozza unokáját, a kisfiú elhatározza, készít az öregasszonynak olyan orvosságot, amelytől talán megjavul.
"George leült a konyhaasztalhoz. Enyhén reszketett. Jaj, úgy utálta a nagyit! Szó szerint utálta az átkozott vén boszorkát.
Hirtelen leküzdhetetlen vágy fogta el, hogy csináljon vele valamit. Valami menőt. Valami irtó barót. Ami sokkoló. Igazi nagy durranás. Szeretett volna megszabadulni a nagyit körüllengő pokolszagtól.
Nyolc éve ellenére bátor kisfiú volt. Készen állt rá, hogy szembeszálljon a vénasszonnyal."
