The Incas - April 2006	Price: £5
If you are interested in far off places and peoples, you will enjoy this month's topic. Travel with us to South America 500 years ago, before Europeans had explored the land. Follow Inca messengers as they run from the capital to the mysterious city of Machu Picchu. Learn how to make an Inca quipu - a special bracelet that is also a way of passing-on information. This month AQUILA celebrates 400 years of the Union Jack flag - how did the design and colours come about? Easter is just around the corner, and Polly Chrome discovers how German children decorate their eggs. Harvey asks the interesting question "Are two eyes better than one?" Enjoy the final part of our story 'Black cat for luck'. Brainfeeder has some Inca themed puzzles to tease your mind. Plus all your favourite regulars: Penfriends, reviews, letters and jokes.

Water, wells and irrigation - March 2006	Price: £5
We all depend on water to live, but we can't always rely on the right amount being in the right place! Find out where our water comes from, how we use it and how we look after it. Astra has been looking at the evidence of water on other planets. EB looks at some wildlife to be found on the British waterways. Make a wishing-well money box with Polly Chrome, and join in a game of Aussie rules football. If you have been reading AQUILA for a long time you may remember Dr Annabel - write in and ask questions to do with health matters, and she will answer your queries. Part one of a new story 'Black cat for luck', watery words with Wordworm and Brainfeeder sets his usual puzzles on this subject, too. Plus all your favourite regulars: Penfriends, reviews, letters and jokes.

Baby creatures - February 2006	Price: £5
The February issue of AQUILA is all about babies - not just cute and cuddly ones, but some of the weird and wonderful ones too! It's a year since the law was passed banning hunting with dogs. Whether you are for or against hunting, have you ever wondered how laws get passed? 'It's the law' tries to explain how the system works. It's pancake time again! We have a yummy recipe for Scotch pancakes. If your family has different traditions, due to your religion or race, you'll be interested in a new series called Rooted, where British children go back to their family's country of origin. EB looks at some of their stories in Our World. Are you a Sudoku fan? We have some new Sudoku books for you to win, and some Murderous maths to try, too.
