Summer stories...











Despite children and adults alike swanning off to far flung places in search of a bit of relaxation, the literary world took no such break. Here are just a few of the headlines from the last couple of months...

  • Raymond Scott, the flamboyant antiques dealer accused of stealing a rare couple of Shakespeare's 'First Folio', has been cleared
  • Science fiction author Ray Bradbury has reached his 90th birthday
  • Chris Wormell's 'One Small Fish', a children's book on evolution, has won the Booktrust Early Years Award
  • Following in the footsteps of fellow New Labour founder Peter Mandelson, Tony Blair has released his autobiography, 'A Journey', leading to nationwide press coverage and controversy
