The debut novel from Josh Baldwin, BECOMING YOU AND I, a young adult contemporary, follows Jamie Watkins and Clara Ashwood, who both share one dream: to be successful designers within the fashion industry. After leaving Oakwood High, Jamie and Clara decide to go against the wishes of their parents to pursue traditional jobs, which results in the breakdown of their relationships. But this - along with the remarks from school thug Nelson and gossip girl Beatrice - is enough to convince them to prove everybody else wrong and to prove themselves right. Escaping to Clara's estranged grandmother's house on the coast and with Granny Ashwood's help, the duo set up a small stall to kickstart their dream. Before they know it, they're jetting off to New York City, where they meet self-made musicians Jake and Emily. From their penthouse, the newly-formed team join forces to make their dreams realities. However, nothing is ever that simple, and Jamie and Clara will have to put their friendship and their drive to the test to overcome the obstacles that lay in the way...

The Elf Who Forgot About Christmas

The Elf Who Forgot About Christmas cover

It's December the First. All the elves and goblins are extremely excited, and Father Christmas has just selected his Star Elf of the year, Evergreen Frostly, to put the star on top of the huge Christmas tree in the middle of the North Pole Town Square. 
But watching from afar is villain Mr. Grit and his sidekick, Crook, a goblin who once upon a time turned sour and was Banished from the North Pole, and he wants to get revenge. 
Together, they've hatched a plan. 
As Evergreen climbs up the tree, they stun him, causing him to fall and bump his head, forgetting what Christmas is all about. 
Through kidnap and disguises, foul play and foolery, they use Evergreen to take down Christmas from the inside, creating havoc for Father Christmas and his team, Mr. Frederick Jingleton, his Head Elf, and Goose, his PA. 
At the same time, on the outside, Edwina Inksmith, founder of The Northerly Herald, joins forces with Mr. Grit and uses her spies to report the stories of the chaos ensuing from within, dividing the elves and goblins of the North Pole, as nobody knows what to believe. 
With Father Christmas seemingly losing his hold over the reigns of Christmas, the festive season and its existence is threatened. Can Evergreen be rescued? Can Mr. Grit and Crook be stopped? And can Christmas go ahead as planned?
Only time will tell...
