From trainee teachers to veteran, battle-hardened staff, the recurring nightmare is of a class of teenagers who simply will not do as they are told. The stomach-clenching, hand-trembling, knee-jittering question we ask ourselves at the start of each new year is, 'What if the pupils walk all over me?' No matter how confident we are in our own abilities, regardless of our position in the school, irrespective of the reputation we have built for ourselves, if we do not ask ourselves that question, then sooner or later we are in for a nasty shock. When it comes to classroom management, we are all in the same boat. We all experience classroom management challenges. It's All An Act offers a range of practical, no-nonsense, pragmatic strategies and techniques to try out, practise, adapt or abandon. It works on the premise that, to a great extent, classroom management is something we can do with pupils rather than to them. In response to the cry of, 'What's the point? That would never work!' the reply is, 'Give it a go. What have you got to lose?' For colleagues under the cosh of lesson preparation, marking, administration, meetings and deadlines, it's an easy read. What have you got to lose?

"In a Nut's Hell" by Jim Wood is a collection of satirical, humorous, and literary shorter-than-short stories geared for the waning attention span and aimed at providing the laughs we all so desperately need these days. Perfect for the coffee table or bathroom, Wood's serious silliness covers the topics we all must live with, from information overload to identity theft to hypocrisy to cancer to surprise parties to home invasion to religion to dung beetles taking over Washington DC. Wood hopes his book will make you laugh and think, ideally at the same time.
