Baie meer doodgewoon as haar ouers en haar tweeling-raasbekboeties. So sy verstaan nie hoekom daar die laaste tyd sulke snaakse goed met haar gebeur nie. By die skool verskyn daar vanself lelike goed op die bord en haar gunstelingkos smaak skielik na spruitkool. Jig! En dan is daar nog die vreemde Indiese blokfluit wat haar ma vir haar present gegee het. Maar sy het nie nou tyd vir sulke nonsens nie. Sy wil ’n troeteldier hê. Chantelle het tweehonderd konyne in haar kamer, maar sy wil nie eens enetjie afstaan nie! Lotta het egter klaar ’n plan hoe om haar EIE troeteldier te kry . . .

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

The Great Big Book of Families introduces children to the fact that not all families look the same. Featuring funny artwork and wonderfully accessible text this book celebrates each family in its own unique and wonderful way. What is a family? Once, it was said to be a father, mother, boy, girl, cat and dog living in a house with a garden. But as times have changed, families have changed too, and now there are almost as many kinds of families as colours of the rainbow. From a mum and dad or single parent to two mums or two dads, from a mixed-race family to children with different mums and dads, to families with a disabled member. This is a fresh, optimistic look through children's eyes at today's wide variety of family life: from homes, food, ways of celebrating, schools and holidays to getting around, jobs and housework, from extended families, languages and hobbies to pets and family trees. The Great Big Book of Families is a brilliant introduction for children to all family types great and small.

Scotty is a little Scotty dog who was blown onto the Isle of Mull, deep in the heart of a storm. But when a fisherman gives him an old collar with ancient writing on it, Scotty is whirled off on a series of extraordinary journeys with his best friend Owl. Crotchety old Owl loves trees - his home being one - and the collar whisks them away to India to see the Banyan, to Brazil to see the last tree left standing, and to East Africa, where new seedlings are sprouting gently into fresh forests. Climate change can sometimes be a little frightening, and Scotty's story is a tale about the small changes we can all make to protect the planet. Will Scotty and Owl get home safely from their journeys around the world? Will Owl manage not to lose all his feathers flapping after the little Scotty, with his nose for adventure? Will they both learn something extraordinary about trees, home, and how to protect it by planting just one seed? Hold tight... Multi-million selling author Conn Iggulden teams up again with fantastic illustrator Lizzy Duncan on this environmental adventure. The story of Scotty was initially produced by the Scotia Group for distribution to all delegates in attendance at the UN's COP26 climate summit in Glasgow. Conn and Lizzy are thrilled to be working with Little Door Books to expand Scotty into a series that continues to tell the story about how nobody is too small to make a difference, and no difference is too small to make when it comes to saving our planet. Excellent for schools and families wanting to find out more about our world and how to help protect it. Publishing on World Earth Day 2023
