woes, en nou is dit . . . Donderdag.
Justin is steeds teen sy sin ’n internetsensasie en mense van oor die

met iemand anders verwar en boonop ontvoer en afgepers. Ons arme held
gaan tot die uiterste beproef word!"
Adriaan wen 'n reis na Japan, waar kinders van oor die hele wêreld 'n
fees bywoon. Hy behoort seker al te weet dat die Internasionale
Speurdiens gereeld die resultaat van kompetisies bewimpel soos dit
hulle pas. En Willem se nuutgevonde kennis van Japannese kultuur laat
Adriaan onraad vermoed . . . Hulle besef gou van die deelnemers is
robotte, maar almal neem deel in kostuums uit die Menagerie-reeks. Wie
is wie? Adriaan en Willem se missie is om te sorg dat die robotte nie
wen nie!

and fried ice cream, but that's not the real attraction . . . Meet
Flamingo, Cactus, Donut and Watermelon - four inflatable pool
floats who live in an almost-forgotten pool next to the
Lost-and-Found office. They may have been left behind by their
original owners, but that hasn't stopped them becoming firm (well
actually quite squashy) friends. And of course there's Lynn too,
the traditional blue Lilo who has been floating around since the
park opened. She's been there, done that and got the puncture. But
things don't always go to plan when you're filled with air and live
in a park packed with pointy things. From Walter S. Lide - the
ruthless park owner - to Claws and Paws, the park's stray cats,
everyone is out to burst their bubble. With each day bringing a
fresh wave of drama, life with the inflatables is always guaranteed
to BLOW UP! Featuring TWO stories: Bad Air Day and Mission
Un-poppable. A funny, sunny, splash-tastic new series for readers
6+, featuring a gang of loveable pool floats! Perfect for fans of
The Bad Guys, Bad Kitty, Spongebob and Toy Story. "A pun-tastic,
abundantly silly graphic novel for 6+." The Guardian
