As a mentor you must be many things: role model, expert, advocate, cheerleader, enforcer and friend. Plus you must make a positive, lasting difference to the knowledge, skills and prospects of your mentee.

So, being a mentor is a big responsibility. But with The Mentoring Manual, getting it right is easy.

Music, murder and everyday magic. Jessie is seventeen years old, a runaway musician living rough in a trailer with a pit bull dog called Bear. That’s fine by Jessie; she’s got big plans. A music contest in Memphis offers the chance of money, fame and escape from a nowhere town with no real prospects. But it turns out there’s more in Memphis than music and suddenly, a simple music contest turns into a fight for survival. Only a puzzling traveller called Finch has the answers Jessie needs. But will she listen? And can she trust in herself enough to change her luck and make magic happen?
