Reunited once more, young Alexander Cold and his best friend,
Nadia, embark upon a new adventure, following Alex's frighteningly
fearless journalist grandmother Kate to a forbidden kingdom hidden
away in the frosty peaks of the Himalayas. They seek the fabled
Golden Dragon--a sacred statue and priceless oracle coveted by a
greedy and powerful outsider. To prevent the desecration of the
holy relic, they will need the help of a sage Buddhist monk, his
young royal disciple, and a fierce tribe of Yeti warriors. But even
the mystical power of their totemic animal spirits may not be
enough to save the teenagers and this remote world from the
destructive encroachment of "civilization."
Kingdom of the Golden Dragon is the second book in a remarkable
trilogy by internationally acclaimed author Isabel Allende.
Roald Dahl's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory in glorious full colour.
Mr Willy Wonka is the most extraordinary chocolate maker in the world.
And do you know who Charlie is? Charlie Bucket is the hero. The other children in this book are nasty little beasts, called: Augustus Gloop - a great big greedy nincompoop; Veruca Salt - a spoiled brat; Violet Beauregarde - a repulsive little gum-chewer; Mike Teavee - a boy who only watches television.
Clutching their Golden Tickets, they arrive at Wonka's chocolate factory. But what mysterious secrets will they discover?
Our tour is about to begin. Please don't wander off. Mr Wonka wouldn't like to lose any of you at this stage of the proceedings . . .
Look out for new Roald Dahl apps in the App store and Google Play- including the disgusting TWIT OR MISS! inspired by the revolting Twits.
