by Favel Parret
A young cub is suddenly snatched from his family and home by a giant eagle, then dropped, injured and alone in a suburban garden.

Fiction – Upper primary
Beast: Face to face with the Florida Bigfoot
By Watt Key
Adam says he can’t remember where he was for the two months he went missing in a Florida swamp. That’s not true. He does remember. He also hasn’t forgotten why he went into the swamp in the first place: One night, he was driving with his parents and the car crashed when his father swerved to avoid colliding with a giant Sasquatch-like creature standing in the highway. Haunted by his parents’ subsequent disappearance and hounded for claiming to have seen Bigfoot, Adam sets off into the deadly wilderness on a hunt for answers as to what really happened that night. The answers he finds are more terrifying — and more surprising — than he could have imagined. Adam can only wish he didn’t remember anything at all.
