A search for the Beast, a Yeti-like creature within the heart of the Amazon, becomes a quest for self-discovery in this young adult coming-of-age story filled with international adventure, rich mythology, and magical realism from globally celebrated novelist Isabel Allende.

Fifteen-year-old Alexander Cold has the chance to take the trip of a lifetime. Parting from his family and ill mother, Alexander joins his fearless grandmother, a magazine reporter for International Geographic, on an expedition to the dangerous, remote world of the Amazon. Their mission, along with the others on their team--including a celebrated anthropologist, a local guide and his young daughter Nadia, and a doctor--is to document the legendary Yeti of the Amazon known as the Beast.

Under the dense canopy of the jungle, Alexander is amazed to discover much more than he could have imagined about the hidden worlds of the rain forest. Drawing on the strength of the jaguar, the totemic animal Alexander finds within himself, and the eagle, Nadia's spirit guide, both young people are led by the invisible People of the Mist on a thrilling and unforgettable journey to the ultimate discovery.

When a clip of Leo playing TOGAH goes viral, he doesn’t expect to get a call from a pro team wanting to recruit him for the Esports World Championship in Paris.

But soon Leo, his best friend Fiks, and his sister Lauren jet off to Europe for an adventure none of them thought was possible.

Wanneer Sakkibiaan, ’n seuntjie van Dorslandtrekkers, wegdwaal van sy familie terwyl hulle deur die Kalahari na Angola trek, maak groot hartseer gou plek vir groot avontuur. Sy pad kruis met dié van twee donker woestynmense en jagmaats: Doemdoempie en Gagaboemboem. Terwyl Doemdoempie met sy mooi hart graag sy nuwe wit broertjie wil help, wil Gagaboemboem met sy swart hart graag biltong van Sakkibiaan maak! Sakkibiaan moet vinnig die geheime taal van die woestyndiere en –insekte leer verstaan om met Doemdoempie kragte saam te span teen Gaggaboemboem en sy bende.

Uiteindelik lei die reis Sakkibiaan op ’n toweragtige pelgrimstog wat bewys: “Vir hulle wat nog nie al die vrae van die lewe kan beantwoord nie, lê daar nog ’n lekker lang pad voor met baie spoortjies daarop.”
