This debut middle-grade novel chronicles the harrowing journey
taken by Sami and his family from privilege to poverty, across
countries and continents, from a comfortable life in Damascus, via
a smuggler's den in Turkey, to a prison in Manchester. A story of
survival, of family, of bravery ... In a world where we are told to
see refugees as the 'other', this story will remind readers that
'they' are also 'us'.
A boy and his dog . . . a girl and her . . . unicorn? It all
started when Phoebe skipped a rock across a pond and accidentally
hit a unicorn in the face. Improbably, this led to Phoebe being
granted one wish, and used it to make the unicorn, Marigold
Heavenly Nostrils, her obligational best friend. But can a vain
mythical beast and a nine-year-old daydreamer really forge a
connection? Indeed they can, and that's how Heavenly Nostrils
unfolds. This beautifully drawn strip follows the unlikely
friendship between a somewhat awkward girl and the unicorn who
gradually shows her just how special she really is. Through
hilarious adventures, where Phoebe gets to bask in Marigold's
"awesomeness," the friends also come to acknowledge they'd been
lonely before they met and come to truly appreciate the bond they
share.

effens vet maar dapper kat – op sy dag die “Kampioenkat van die
jaar” – nou ook die harte van jong Suid-Afrikaanse lesers verower.

van Marc de Bel. Kieta, Robbie se vriendinnetjie, gaan trek. Haar

koop nie. 'n Groot jammerte, want dit hoef glad nie 'n probleem te
gewees het nie. Die man besit iets baie waardevols: Die bal van Bil
Jart, 'n unieke tennisbal met 'n handtekening daarop. Hierdie
kosbare bal is egter gesteel. Kieta is raadop...en Robbie is reg
vir aksie.
