Welcome to The Sunbearer Trials, where ten semidioses compete in a
series of challenges with the highest of stakes in this
breathtaking, Mexican-inspired fantasy from Aiden Thomas, the
author of the New York Times-bestselling Cemetery Boys. Only the
most powerful and honorable will be chosen. Teo, the
seventeen-year-old trans son of the goddess of birds, isn't
worried. As a Jade, it's unlikely he'll be chosen to compete in the
Trials, and even if his best friend Niya competes, she's a
born-and-bred Gold semidios with unparalleled abilities. But for
the first time in over a century, Sol chooses not one, but two Jade
competitors: Teo - and Xio, the thirteen-year-old child of the god
of bad luck. With the odds stacked against them, Teo is determined
to get himself and his friends through the trials unscathed - for
fame, glory, and their own survival . . .
Leroy Boulder wants a toolbox just like his Dad. One day he visits
the industrial mart and finds an angry toolbox sitting alone on a
shelf. Leroy is intrigued by this toolbox and tries to find out why
he is so angry. Leroy discovers that the angry toolbox longed to
make friends, to be loved and to be filled with his own tools so
that he could help others. The Very Angry Toolbox is a delightful
story that is a must-have for all children's bookshelves. This is
the perfect book for discussing feelings and emotions and
considering the impact that our feelings have on others.

Tomas kan nie sy lewe voorstel sonder sy draak Flikker nie.
Flikker is meer as net ’n troeteldier – hy’s die beste maat wat Tomas al ooit gehad het! Maar hy het sy oupa belowe dat hy en sy vriende hulle drake sal vrylaat, en dis beslis nie ’n maklike ding om te doen nie.
Veral nie wanneer Tomas en sy vriende soveel pret het saam met hulle drake Flikker, Son, Vrieska en Sluiper nie, nie as hulle nog moet uitwerk waar die drake vandaan kom en hoe om hulle weer terug by hulle huis te kry nie, en nie as Tomas op die nippertjie is om die storie agter die geheimsinnige draakvrugboom uit te pluis nie!

Children's Book Award 2016, and the North East Book Award 2015.
When the mysterious Nowhere Emporium arrives in Glasgow, orphan
Daniel Holmes stumbles upon it quite by accident. Before long, the
'shop from nowhere' -- and its owner, Mr Silver -- draw Daniel into
a breathtaking world of magic and enchantment. Recruited as Mr
Silver's apprentice, Daniel learns the secrets of the Emporium's
vast labyrinth of passageways and rooms -- rooms that contain
wonders beyond anything Daniel has ever imagined. But when Mr
Silver disappears, and a shadow from the past threatens everything,
the Emporium and all its wonders begin to crumble. Can Daniel save
his home, and his new friends, before the Nowhere Emporium is
destroyed forever? Ross MacKenzie unleashes a riot of imagination,
colour and fantasy in this astonishing adventure, perfect for fans
of Philip Pullman, Cornelia Funke and Neil Gaiman.
