Die nuwe skooljaar begin nie goed vir Thomas nie. Eers het hy en Hannes 'n nagmerrieondervinding in 'n hyser en dan word hy vir 'n week lank geskors omdat hy die ou drel van 'n Piet Senekal geslaan het. Thomas se pa is so kwaad hieroor, dat hy hom verbied om naby enige rekenaar te kom en hom vir 'n week lank hok! Dit beteken dat Thomas die interhuisdans gaan misloop - sy enigste kans om vir Alex amptelik te vra om sy meisie te wees. Die enigste voordeel van die paar dae by die huis, is dat Louisa, sy stiefma, hom kan help om voor te berei vir die toneeloudisie - die manlike hoofrol kry immers die kans om vir Alex te soen! Maar dan begin 'n reeksmoordenaar paniek saai in Kaapstad en dit lyk asof dinge nie heeltemal gaan uitwerk soos wat Thomas beplan het nie. Agterin die KABV-goedgekeurde skooluitgawe van hierdie gewilde boek verskyn opsommings, opwindende, uitdagende pre- en postlees-aktiwiteite en volledig uitgewerkte vrae en antwoorde wat aan die KABV-riglyne voldoen.

In this spine-tingling story from Newbery Medal winner Avi, a boy must solve the mystery of the ghost haunting him. Full of twists and turns that get spookier by the chapter, School of the Dead is a fast-paced mystery that Avi's fans will devour! For most of Tony Gilbert's life, he has thought of his uncle as "Weird Uncle Charlie." That is, until Uncle Charlie moves in with Tony and his family. Uncle Charlie is still odd, of course-talking about spirits and other supernatural stuff-but he and Tony become fast friends, and Tony ends up having a lot of fun with Uncle Charlie. When Uncle Charlie dies suddenly, Tony is devastated. Then he starts seeing Uncle Charlie everywhere! It doesn't help that Tony switched schools-it was Uncle Charlie's dying wish that Tony attend the Penda School, where Uncle Charlie himself went as a kid. The Penda School is eerie enough without his uncle's ghost making it worse. On top of that, rumors have been circulating about a student who went missing shortly before Tony arrived. Could that somehow be related to Uncle Charlie's ghost?

Now, somehow the Proctor knows them, too. The four must uncover the true killer before The Proctor exposes more than they can bear and costs them more than they can afford, like Nancy's full scholarship. Soon, Nancy suspects that her friends may be keeping secrets from her, too. Katie Zhao's YA debut is an edge-of-your-seat drama set in the pressure-cooker world of academics and image at Sinclair Prep, where the past threatens the future these teens have carefully crafted for themselves.

The Golden Boys Rescued by the Radio (1923) is an adventure novel by L.P. Wyman and one of seven books in his vastly underrated-and relatively unknown-Golden Boys series. Each novel follows the adventures of Bob and Jack Golden, brothers from Maine with curious minds and adventurous hearts. Together, often alongside their trusted friend Rex Dale, the Golden Boys use their problem-solving skills and wilderness experience to overcome danger, discover strange places, and grow into fine young men. While fishing on a lake near their family cabin in the woods of northern Maine, brothers Bob and Jack Golden encounter a strange man with an accent. Curious-and a little worried-at first, the boys return to the peace of the great outdoors for a few more hours. That night, however, a man tries to break into their cabin, and after scaring him off with a gun the brothers wait until morning before making their way home to Skowhegan. There to meet them on their arrival is revenue officer Jim Carson, who is desperate for help on a case involving bootleggers from Canada. Eager to get to the bottom of the previous night's mystery, as well as to put their newly invented radio to the test, the Golden Boys agree to help Jim. The ensuing adventure, which involves a vanishing cabin, daring rescues, and abundant danger, the Golden Boys will need their wits about them, as well as to use every skill they can muster. With its brilliant blend of detective and adventure fiction, L.P. Wyman's The Golden Boys Rescued by the Radio is an absolute thrill ride from start to finish. L.P. Wyman's The Golden Boys Rescued by the Radio is the work of an inventive author, and is both easy to read and difficult to put down. Published several years before the debut of The Hardy Boys series, which would dominate young adult fiction for decades to come, The Golden Boys series is long overdue for the attention and appreciation it deserves. Although originally published for an audience of teenage boys, Wyman's series is perfect for children of all ages and genders, as well as for adults looking to return to the simple, exciting fiction of their youth. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of L.P. Wyman's The Golden Boys Rescued by the Radio is a newly unearthed classic of young adult literature reimagined for modern readers.
