Op skool was sy dié meisie: mooi en gewild met skatryk ouers.

Tien jaar later is Connie Verster se lewe ’n omgekeerde sprokie: van Gouelokkies tot Aspoestertjie. Nou is sy ’n gesk eide enkelouer wat spartel om kop bo water te hou.

Dan stap die destydse bleeksiel Stef Neetlingh op ’n dag by haar gastehuis in. Connie herken glad nie die aantreklike man nie. Stef is dit te wagte: Vir hom is Connie steeds die goue meisie wat vaaljapies soos hy miskyk. Hoekom kan hulle dan nie ophou om aan mekaar te dink nie?

Jessica Rabbit probeer nie voorgee om iets te wees wat sy nie is nie. Sy’s ’n uitlokkende vrou en klaar.

Op haar een-en-dertigste verjaarsdag besluit Roxy sy soek ’n roekelose, skelrooi lipstiek-lewe. Almal dink in elk geval sy is sletterig en uitgesproke – grotendeels weens haar blog wat sy onder die skuilnaam Jessica Rabbit skryf. Haar kollega Zander dink sy is Jessica Rabbit in lewende lywe: so witwarm sensueel dat sy ’n nat lap aan die brand kan steek. Roxy voel allesbehalwe sensueel, en die geraamtes uit haar verlede beduiwel telkens haar flirtasies en verhoudings. Daarom gryp sy nou na rooi lipstiek.

Wanneer Zander se pa, die bekende motiveringspreker Adam Muller, op die toneel verskyn, raak Roxy se lipstiek-lewe nog meer deurmekaar. Die enigste sekerheid in Roxy se nuwe wêreld blyk Ouma Lot te wees – totdat dié ook in raaisels begin praat. Roxy se lipstiek begin al meer na oorlogsverf lyk. . .

Achieve better marks in Afrikaans (Grade 7-12)

Afrikaans+ is a learner-friendly guidebook which caters for additional language learners who want to achieve better marks in Afrikaans. This practical guide contains explanations in English and is filled to the brim with examples. It explains tests and exams used for both the DBE and IEB and was written by a panel of educational experts who understand the needs of additional language learners.

This book is completely up to date. The Afrikaanse Woordelys en Spelreëls (AWS) has just been re-issued, blindsiding many a teacher with the changes in Afrikaans grammar rules. While the AWS is seen as the touchstone for Afrikaans language practitioners, it could be a daunting book to use in the classroom. Afrikaans+ was written with the most recent changes to the AWS in mind, and presents these grammar rules in a clear, practical manner.

Every chapter in the book also offers free online support - exercises, answers and examples - which will be kept up to date by the panel.

The book contains six sections:

1. Comprehension - Begrip: This explains how you should approach a comprehension test, how to look for the answers, and provides tips on how to understand the questions. It also explains how to make summaries. Visual texts, such as cartoons, graphs and maps, are also explained.

2. Grammar - Taal: This is a step-by-step guide to understanding the “how” and the “why” of Afrikaans grammar. You will be guided with English explanations and Afrikaans examples on things like word order, tenses, adjectives, adverbs, time, numbers, plural and diminutive forms, the negative, active and passive voice, pronouns, participles and abbreviations. There are sections offering basic knowledge to help the struggling learner through the exam. But there are also more advanced sections for the learner who wants to get an A and for the teacher who wants to become familiar with all the changes in the AWS.

3. Literature - Letterkunde: Everything you need to know about prose, drama, short stories and poetry. What is the difference between a metaphor and a simile? Who is the protagonist and who the antagonist? We use simple explanations and good examples of all these and other literature terms.

4. Oral - Mondeling: The book contains practical pointers on how to prepare for different kinds of oral, such as interviews, prepared speeches, introducing and thanking a speaker, roleplay, how to make a vlog and how to discuss the booklist you have to read for grade 12. Examples of all these are given, and more are provided online.

5. Vocabulary - Woordeskat: You will always need vocabulary for essays and orals. With the most recent vocabulary on food, technology, life after school, sport and lots more, you will be well prepared.

6. Written work - Skryfwerk: This section starts with a step-by-step approach to writing: how to choose a topic, how to do your planning, what not to use in an essay and how to end your story. The examples of all the different types of written work (essays, long and short transactional writing) and tips on each, will help you to master each one. Online you will be able to read through more examples.

Aimed at 3 to 5 year olds, this title introduces the alphabet and basic numbers and counting through the theme of African wildlife and nature.

Fully illustrated throughout, it is a 'first' book of the alphabet and as such features several single words to represent each letter from A to Z, and wildlife themes to introduce counting. Colourful scenes of the African bushveld, the coast, night-time and river environment reinforce words encountered earlier in the title and help young children to "test" their knowledge while learning about the environment.

Simple activities follow in which children can identify the animals they have seen, match animals to their shapes, identify animal hides, and learn comparisons.

Dianne is divorced but for the sake of her two daughters she lives next to her ex-husband, sharing a joint double garden. Good for the girls but what about her? How can she move on if Alan and his new fiancée are always around?

Her post-divorce romances have stalled: Andile, her lover turned friend, and Faye, her secret Tinder date turned sometimes lover. Both Andile and Faye want more but Di is not sure what she wants. Her daughters were not thrilled with the idea of her with a boyfriend, will they freak out if their mom has a girlfriend? Is it even worth introducing them if Faye might turn out not to be the one for her? But when Dianne’s eldest daughter deals with homophobia at school, Dianne feels compelled to speak out and be honest about who she is.

With the support of her friends Kari, Lily, Shelley and now Shireen, she might just have the courage to do it. But what will the fallout be?

Toe ’n klein bakoorjakkals deur ’n vreeslose, brawe ratel gered word, besluit hy om by hom te bly vir beskerming. Die ratel dink eers glad nie dis oulik nie ... maar dalk het die jakkalsie ook ’n paar nuttige vaardighede!

’n Prettige en pragtige prenteboek oor vriendskap.

Die Bitterbosbende besluit om in die skoolkoor te sing. Maar meneer Louw is nie die vriendelikste nie en boonop is daar nuwe koorlede wat Kurt nog nooit in die skool opgemerk het nie en wat blykbaar vir die res van die bende onsigbaar is. Dan ontdek Nieke 'n stuk papier met snaakse simbole, amper soos bladmusiek, in haar geskiedenisboek. Nieke en Kurt besef hulle droom albei oor onaardse aaklige musiek, en 'n koor van kinders geklee in swart, met aardige groot koppe . . .

Die Bitterbosbende kamp langs die rivier. Toe Zia en Nieke een aand badkamer toe loop, begin 'n hond verwoed blaf. Toe is daar die geluid van 'n trein wat kwaai rem aanslaan en dan 'n harde botsing. Dis eers toe Zia gil dat Nieke sien wat in haar hand is . . .  'n been?  En so begin die soeke na die geheimsinnige stoomlokomotief wat passasiers in die sewentigerjare vervoer het, wat daar naby ontspoor het. Wat het van die slagoffers, wat kinders en 'n hond ingesluit het, geword?
