Robbie Ramkat is die nuwe suksesreeks van die uiters gewilde jeugskrywer Marc de Bel. Die Robbie Ramkat-reeks (Roesty Spetter in Nederlands) was vanaf hierdie eerste boek 'n groot sukses in Nederland en Vlaandere. Met die vertaling in Afrikaans gaan die effens vet maar dapper kat - op sy dag die "Kampioenkat van die jaar" - nou ook die harte van jong Suid-Afrikaanse lesers verower. In die eerste boek in die reeks - Katskenades onder die volmaan! - ontmoet die jong leser die lekkerbek Robbie Ramkat, sy mooi vriendinnetjie Kieta, die gevaarlike labrador Bamboes en die brandmaer rot, Vaalwillem. Ten spyte van die ekstra gewig wat hierdie eks-kampioenkat opgetel het, wink avontuur nog steeds om elke draai. Kort voor lank is hy weer kaatjie van die baan. Veral as sy vriendinnetjie Kieta op die toneel verskyn! Dan is geen muur te hoog, geen spruit te breed, geen see te diep, geen plek te ver, geen rondloperhond te groot, geen braaiwors te warm nie...
"A beautiful, gentle, rhyming exploration of grief and mourning." - Joe Coelho, Waterstones Children's Laureate The Hare-Shaped Hole is a beautiful, touching, and poignant picture book which gently explores themes of grief and loss. Hertle and Bertle were always a pair, though one was a turtle and one was a hare. They were utterly buddies, and best friends forever and whenever you looked, you would find them together... until quite unexpectedly... the end came. When Hertle disappears for good, Bertle can only see a Hertle-shaped hole where his friend should be. He pleads with it, get angry with it, but the hole still won't bring his Hertle back. It seems like hope is lost... until Gerda the kindly bear finds him. She explains that he must fill the hole with his memories of Hertle. And slowly... Bertle begins to feel a little bit better. Powerful and moving text from children's author and poet John Dougherty is paired perfectly with warm illustrations from the wonderfully talented Thomas Docherty in a thoughtful and sensitive approach to this difficult topic. This moving picture book can be used as part of a gentle conversation about death and grief with children.
