This is the remarkable story of David’s introduction to the world: sea, mountains and flowers, the colours of Italy, the taste of fruit, people laughing and smiling, all are new to David. David learns that his polite manner, his haunted eyes and his thin features are strange to other people. He must learn to fend for himself in this strange new world.

'A writer of comic genius - he has something of Roald Dahl's magic, but more heart' - Sunday Telegraph ‘Maybe you don’t believe me. Maybe you don’t believe in magic. I bet you will by the time you’ve heard what happened to us.’ Cousins Middy and Nathan love magic. The on-stage, cape-swirling, bunny-out-of-a-hat kind. For Middy, it’s all about patience and practice. She uses magic skills to help her out of tricky situations. Nathan is a show-off and a total danger magnet, he is drawn to the sensation, spectacle and audience. So when the famous Blackpool Tower dramatically vanishes the night of the Grand Lights Switch-On, showman Nathan announces live on TV that they will magic it back home. With a stick of rock, a spangly cape, and a bit of misdirection, they end up lost in Las Vegas, home to the grand master of illusion, Perplexion, ‘Legend of Magic’. Full of tricks, twists and deceptions, the delightful Nathan and Middy will keep you guessing until the very end. Praise for Noah's Gold: 'Sparkly, witty, enticing storytelling . . . It's perfect' Hilary McKay

Elke droom begin met ’n dromer. Megan Werner, die stigter van die U Dream Global-inisiatief, het in 2018 besluit om saam met ‘n groep van 20 tieners vanuit verskillende agtergronde ’n vliegtuig te bou. In Junie 2019 was die vliegtuig uiteindelik gereed en kon die 17-jarige Megan saam met vyf ander tieners die vlug van Kaapstad na Kaïro aanpak. Hulle doel was om om kinders in ander Afrikalande te inspireer om hul drome na te jaag. Min het die ses tieners egter geweet dat dit uiteindelik HULLE sou wees wat deur die reis geïnspireer sou word.

Verskeie avonture en naelbyt-oomblikke het gevolg voordat Megan-hulle uiteindelik op Kaïro-lughawe geland het. Hier het hulle grootste ondersteuner, Megan se pa, die tieners ingewag. “Ons het dit gemaak!” het hy gejuig en vir Megan ’n stywe druk gegee. ’n Paar dae later het ’n tevrede span die reis terug na SuidAfrika aangepak. Oudergewoonte het Megan se pa en sy medevlieënier in hul eie vliegtuig saamgereis om ondersteuning te bied. Maar bokant Tanzanië het die droom in tragedie geëindig …

As jy droom is ’n storie van durf, deursettingsvermoë, hoop én hartseer. ‘n Avontuur met soveel adrenalien dat jy dit dalk vergesog sou noem – as dit nie die waarheid was nie …

Baie jare gelede was Oupa 'n bobaasvlieenier in die Tweede Wereldoorlog. Maar sedertdien is hy na die ouetehuis Twilight Towers toe gestuur waar die onheilspellende matrone Swine die septer swaai. Oupa en sy kleinseun, Jack, moet 'n waaghalsige plan beraam om te ontsnap. Min weet hulle dat die bose matrone hulle fyn dophou ...

Die verskil tussen Arboreta en al die ander hekse in die wereld is dat sy nie 'n bose of nare heks is nie: Sy het nie moesies of ’n haakneus nie en vang ook nie kindertjies om in haar swart pot te kook later hulle beentjies af te suig nie. Sy wil veel eerder he dat kinders veilig en gelukkig in haar woud rondspeel. Arboreta is ’n gelukkige heks – maar daar is tog twee goed waaroor sy haar baie bekommer: Wie sal eendag die boomheks van die groot groen woud wees wanneer sy nie meer daar is nie? En wat sal gebeur as die houtkappers aanhou om so vreeslik baie bome af te kap, sonder om nuwes te plant? Miskien kan die groen dogtertjie wat op ’n dag die woud besoek, Arboreta help om die woud te red … maar hoe?
