Annie M.G. Schmidt se verhaaltjies oor Jip en Janneke het oorspronklik in die 1950’s in die Nederlandse koerant Het Parool verskyn, in kombinasie met Fiep Westendorp se ikoniese swart en wit illustrasies. Met verloop van tyd het die twee karaktertjies se avonture sinoniem geword met die Nederlandse lewenswyse en word Jip en Janneke vandag as een van Nederland se mees geliefde uitvoerprodukte beskou. Jip en Janneke is beste maats. Hulle woon langs mekaar en speel elke dag van vroeg tot laat. Saam-saam het Jip en Janneke die wonderlikste avonture. Hulle speel skool-skool, verken die solder, spring in reenplasse en hou 'n kompetisie om te sien wie die meeste pannekoeke kan eet. Hulle word selfs die eienaars van die oulikste brakkie met die naam Takkie! Partykeer is hulle lekker stout – soos wanneer hulle prentjies uit Pappa se boeke knip – en partykeer kan hulle lekker baklei. Maar oor een ding stem hulle saam: Met 'n maatjie aan die ander kant van die heining kan die lewe nooit vervelig wees nie!

Meet LONG JOHN McRON, SHIP'S COOK . . . and the most unusual babysitter you've ever seen.

Long John has a whole crew of wild pirates in tow, and – for two intrepid children – he's about to transform a perfectly ordinary evening into a riotous adventure beneath a pirate moon. It's time to make some PIRATE STEW.

Pirate Stew! Pirate Stew!
Pirate Stew for me and you!
Pirate Stew, Pirate Stew
Eat it and you won't be blue
You can be a pirate too!

Marvellously silly and gloriously entertaining, this tale of pirates, flying ships, donut feasts and some rather magical stew is perfect for all pirates, both young and old. With a deliciously rhyming text from master storyteller Neil Gaiman, and spellbinding illustrations by the supremely talented Chris Riddell, three-times-winner of the Kate Greenaway Medal, this is the picture book of the year! Joyful, quirky and action-packed, it makes a spectacular and magical gift.

Het jy al ooit gewonder hoe die wereld was voordat daar skole bestaan het? Wat het mense van hulle wereld geleer? Het hulle gese dat die engeltjies piepie as dit reen? Het hulle geweet van mense soos Napoleon en Paul Kruger? Was kinders regtig veilig teen 'n onvoorbereide toets?'n Skreeusnaakse boek vir kinders wat verwag dat dinge beter moes wees voordat daar skole was. Die skrywer neem die leser terug na prehistoriese tye waar wiskunde, geskiedenis, musiek en fisika nie regtig saakgemaak het nie. Terselfdertyd herinner dit die leser op humoristiese wyse waarom kinders skool toe moet gaan. Met groot illustrasies, waterverf met bruin potlood en gepaste raak sinne en uitdrukkings wat die illustrasies telkens aanvul en ironiseer.
