Art
This issue is about the many stories art tells, the ways we look at art and the way art stretches us to think about the world with a new perspective. We bring you the story of a town where all the buildings have been painted joyful colours to reflect the spirit of the place, we wonder about the mystery of why cave art was made in caves, we look at how different artists work in different ways, from selfies to graffiti, we invite you to create your own portraits, monograms, galleries, hearts and stones. It is an issue jam packed full of marvellous ideas, stories, and activities to see you through the summer holidays!

The Innovation Issue
In the pages of our June issue we go on a journey with our guest editor Konnie Huq to take a look at the many aspects of invention and innovation. Within the pages we delve into the stories of what happens when robots make bad decisions and how inventions can fail, we talk to an inventor who makes products out of used bubble gum, we think about the innovation of language and how nature inspires technology and we look at some historical inventions created by children, and as always we invite our readers to take part with games and puzzles throughout. This is an issue about the excitement of hairbrained ideas and how the world has been and continues to be changed by them.

Imagination
Imagination, when we actually use it, can, I believe, change the way we live and see the world. This issue brings treats of imagination in all sorts of stories, quizzes, interviews, games, articles and comics. You may just find that, as Einstein said, ‘imagination is more important than knowledge’.

Music & Sound
Music affects each of us and plays a large part in making us who we are. Inside this issue we explore music and its part in the world, and also HOW we listen – isn’t it amazing that when Beethoven lost his hearing he listened through vibrations in the floor?

Mystery and Spies
As Autumn approaches and the nights get longer, we wanted to bring you an issue brimming with pages of secrecy and mystery. Inside you will find stories of strangeness, read about how codes win wars and start to understand the achievments of some of the greatest women spies. With the approach to the centenerary of World War 1, this issue reflects on the heroes of the war and the longed-for peace that was finally declared.
