eerder 'n kunstenaar wees, of 'n dokter, of 'n professor, of selfs die
staatspresident! 'n Skaterlagstorie propvol verbeeldingskrag, pret en
die viering van boeke! Uitstekend vertaal deur Jaco Jacobs.
From beloved powerhouse author Katherine Applegate comes The One
and Only Ruby, starring the adorable baby elephant from the Newbery
Medal-winning modern classic The One and Only Ivan and its
bestselling sequel, The One and Only Bob. Ruby’s story picks up a
few months after the events of The One and Only Bob. Now living in
a wildlife sanctuary, Ruby’s caretaker from the elephant
orphanage in Africa where she grew up is visiting. Seeing him again
brings back a flood of memories both happy and sad of her life
before the circus, and she recounts the time she spent in the
African savannah to Ivan and Bob. In the timeless way that only
Katherine Applegate could craft, this highly anticipated novel in
verse is the perfect mix of heartfelt and humorous, poignant and
sweet. Don’t miss the film adaptation of The One and Only Ivan,
now streaming on Disney+!
In this cozy bedtime story, follow a child and his grandma through
a winter landscape to explore how the Earth goes to sleep for
winter. Spot the sleeping animals as the tale unfolds, then learn
about their hibernation habits from the information pages at the
end. Co-authors Sean Taylor (picture book author) and Alex Morss
(ecologist, journalist, and educator) offer a gentle introduction
to the concept of hibernation. In the frosty, quiet forest, the
snow blankets the ground and the trees have shed their leaves.
Where have all the animals gone? Are they asleep too? In each
cutaway scene, see what the child cannot - that underground below
his feet are dens with sleeping creatures, and within the hollow
trunks of trees, animals are nesting. After the story, annotated
illustrations explain the hibernation facts for each animal and
what they will do when they wake up for spring. Cozy up as you
expand your and your child's knowledge of the natural world.

Dit is nie net Wolf wat onder Jakkals se streke deurloop nie, maar die ganse diereryk - van koning Leeu tot die kleinste diertjie ry aan die pen. Niemand is bestand teen die uitgeslape Jakkals se poetse nie, en die een wat hom probeer terugkry, kom steeds die slegste daarvan af. Maar soms loop Jakkals tog sy rieme styf en dan moet hy net bontstaan met sy slim bek om uit die moeilikheid te kom, want dis gewoonlik diep moeilikheid!
