Lotta Liebenberg is tien jaar oud. Haar beste vriendin se naam is Chantelle, sy hou van pannekoek en sy is MAL oor diere. Maar eintlik is sy net doodgewoon.

Die dagboekstyl en skeeusnaakse illustrasies sal sorg dat lesers van 8 tot 12 jaar die sjarmante Lotta se eskapades onweerstaanbaar vind.

In die elfde boek van die Lotta se lewe­reeks moet Lotta se klas 'n VERSKEIDENHEIDSKONSERT hou! Juffrou Knacker het besluit wie saam met wie moet werk – en Lotta se spanmaat is Benni! ’n Rocker! Chantelle doen saam met die Skaapkop Leigh­Anne (verraaier!) ’n klomp cool hondetoertjies en Rémi ry op ’n eenwielfiets, maar Lotta moet HANSWORSSTREKE uithaal. Dis onregverdig! Dankie tog sy het haar blokfluit om te probeer keer dat haar naam voor die hele skool met ’n plank geslaan word!

Dit is die een katastrofe ná die ander in Lotta se lawwe lewe! Haar avonture is egter altyd vol pret, humor en verrassings.

Splatt could not have imagined that a simple quest to find colour would reveal its true essence!

Splatt, an adolescent water drop, lives in Sea Drop Village on the ocean floor at a depth where water has absorbed all colours of light spectrum, and everything appears grey. He is curious and somewhat rebellious; and struggles to blindly accept the authoritarian dogma he is taught – from the dangers of entering the open ocean, to a required unyielding reverence to Thunder God his creator, and finally the threat of death by painful evaporation should he rise to the surface. But most of all he refuses to accept that colour does not exist.

Splatt becomes preoccupied with the fabled Colourland and convinces his girlfriend Lara to set out under the cover of darkness to find it. But only meters into their quest they get separated by strong currents and carried in opposite directions. Both know the only way to reunite is to find Colourland. But the ocean is vast and home to diverse Drop Species that are often hostile.

Success seems increasingly unlikely and at times impossible. The Question is: is colour found in the journey, the destination, or beyond?
