Blitz Bombs & Mythical Monsters🪖⛵

In this episode of BookQuest, we’re looking at what happens when ordinary kids are thrown into the absolute deep end of history and myth. Whether you’re dodging air raids or outsmarting skeleton armies, survival takes some serious teamwork!

On the Shelf This Week:

• Tony Bradman joins the show to introduce Tales of Cobb Street Commandos. Walk into the chaos of World War Two alongside Jimmy and his friends, who refuse to just hide from the air raids—instead, they form their very own commando unit to protect their neighborhood.

• Clare Pollard also features with Othernauts, a hilariously fresh retelling of the classic Greek myth of Jason and the Argonauts. Follow eleven-year-old Phoebe as she stows away on a legendary quest full of harpies, sea monsters, and skeleton armies—aided by a crew of kids whose "powers" include unreliable shapeshifting and headache-inducing siren singing.
