“Pappa!” roep Johannes. “Pappa, kyk net!”. “Stil!” roep meneer Blom. “Ek kry nie gewerk nie!”. “Maar jy moet kyk, Pappa,” se Nella Della. Sy hou haar hand ’n bietjie stywer om die mannetjie sodat hy nie kan ontsnap nie. Meneer Blom kyk. “Wat is dit?” vra hy effens knorrig, asof hy vies is dat hulle hom oor so ’n kleinigheid pla. “Is dit ’n kabouter? Kabouters bestaan nie. Dit is dus onmoontlik. Los my nou dat ek kan werk.” ’n Kabouter is dit nie, maar ’n wiplala met die naam Wiplala. En Wiplala kan toor, of soos hy dit noem ‘tinkel’. Die enigste probleem is dat Wiplala dit soms regkry om te tinkel en soms nie. Wanneer hy die Blom-gesin net so klein maak soos hy, is dit die begin van ’n opwindende avontuur. Die Bloms wonder egter of hulle ooit weer normale mense sal word!. Wiplala verskyn oorspronklik in 1957 in Nederlands. Dit is uit die pen van die bekende Nederlandse kinderboekskrywer Annie M.G. Schmidt. Die boek word in verskeie tale vertaal (onder meer Duits, Fins, Engels en selfs Japannees). In 2014 verskyn daar ook ’n film wat gebaseer is op die boek.

Three casinos. Three bodies. Three days.

After a string of brutal murders in Las Vegas, Cassie Hobbes and the Naturals are called in to investigate. But even with the team's unique profiling talents, these murders seem baffling: unlike many serial killers, this one uses different methods every time. All of the victims were killed in public, yet the killer does not show up on any security feed. And each victim has a string of numbers tattooed on their wrist. Hidden in the numbers is a code - and the closer the Naturals come to unraveling the mystery, the more perilous the case becomes.

Meanwhile, Cassie is dealing with an equally dangerous and much more painful mystery. For the first time in years, there's been a break in her mother's case. As personal issues and tensions between the team mount, Cassie and the Naturals will be faced with impossible odds - and impossible choices.

From the winner of the Costa Children's Book Prize 'A writer with an utterly distinctive voice and a wild imagination' - Philip Pullman Feodora and her mother live in the snowbound woods of Russia, in a house full of food and fireplaces. Ten minutes away, in a ruined chapel, lives a pack of wolves. Feodora's mother is a wolf wilder, and Feo is a wolf wilder in training. A wolf wilder is the opposite of an animal tamer: it is a person who teaches tamed animals to fend for themselves, and to fight and to run, and to be wary of humans. When the murderous hostility of the Russian Army threatens her very existence, Feo is left with no option but to go on the run. What follows is a story of revolution and adventure, about standing up for the things you love and fighting back. And, of course, wolves.
