Join the children and their friends Moonface, Saucepan Man and Silky the fairy as they discover which new land is at the top of the Faraway Tree.
Will it be the Land of Secrets, the Land of Enchantments, or the Land of Know-Alls? Discover the magic!

Laugh your head off in this second adventure in the bestselling,
highly acclaimed Grimwood series. Your favourite fox cub siblings
Ted and Nancy are back with an all-new wildly funny story that will
have children (and their grown-ups) begging for more. Perfect for
readers age 7+, and fans of Dog Man, Roald Dahl, David Walliams,
Loki, Bunny vs Monkey and anyone who likes to laugh. Ted and Nancy
love their new life in Grimwood - the forest where anything can
happen. But the dastardly mayor of neighbouring town Twinklenuts is
on a mission to take over Grimwood and kick everyone out. Ted and
Nancy must muster up bags of courage, rally their friends, and show
off their treebonking skills to save the home they've grown to
love. Fully illustrated throughout and full of heart, laughs and
surprises, this is the must-read second title in the bestselling
and fantastically funny Grimwood series. Nadia Shireen has won
awards for her picture books including the UKLA Book Award for Good
Little Wolf and most recently for Barbara Throws a Wobbler, which
has been described as a 'little doorway of joy' by Caitlin Moran.

Waterstones Children's Book Prize, and has been Writer-Illustrator
in Residence for BookTrust. Grimwood is her first series for older
readers. Praise for Grimwood: 'The inside of Nadia Shireen's brain
must be a fun place to be because there are SO MANY funny jokes and
hilarious moments in Grimwood: Let the Fur Fly! GO read it now!'

Harwarrus Horribalus Heldehelm die Derde was 'n swaardvegter,
draak¬fluisteraar en die grootste Wiking-held wat nog ooit gelewe
het. Die draakrebellie het begin. Harwarrus is stoksielalleen en in
ballingskap. Mense sowel as drake maak jag op hom - sy enigste hoop
is dat hy die draakjuweel sal opspoor. Maar waar moet hy begin
soek?
Erin Hunter's #1 nationally bestselling Warriors series continues
in Warriors: Omen of the Stars-now featuring fierce new art. The
fourth book in this fourth series, Warriors: Omen of the Stars #4:
Sign of the Moon, brings more adventure, intrigue, and thrilling
battles to the epic world of the warrior Clans. As the dark forces
that have come between the four warrior Clans grow stronger,
Jayfeather is summoned to the mountains by a desperate plea-the
Tribe of Rushing Water is on the brink of being lost forever.
Die Jasper-jeugreeks is die eerste keer uitgegee in 1959 en daar
was verskeie herdrukke. Hierdie is die tiende titel in die
Jasper-reeks. Vir enige kind sal dit ure se genot verskaf, want dit
is 'n boek om te lees en te herlees. Saam met die Viermanskap is
die leser bly oor die sukses wat behaal word en saam met die
vriende word daar getreur oor die brandende sitvlakke! Saam met ‘n
groep kinders van Leliesvlei se hoerskool, en onder toesig van
meneer Basson, gaan Jasper die Wildtuin besoek. Maar op pad
daarheen - en nogal op ‘n steil bergpas en in gietende reen van ‘n
Laeveldse donderstorm - raak die bus waarmee hulle reis onklaar. En
lank nadat die donderstorm bedaar het, staan die logge ou rooi
gevaarte nog al die tyd langs die pad, te steeks om ‘n wiel te
verroer. Intussen begin dit reeds donker word en meneer Basson word
onrustig. Nou nie heeltemal met meneer Basson se toestemming nie,
besluit Jasper en sy drie maats dat hulle die wereld moet gaan
verken en kyk of hulle nie hulp kan kry nie. En ja werklik, voordat
hulle baie ver gevorder het, hoor hulle die gedreun van ‘n
vragmotor, wat hulle na ‘n afgesonderde plaashuis lei. Omhul deur
die waas van geheimsinnigheid, le die huis tussen die bosse, sonder
‘n lig of enige ander teken van lewe, behalwe die vragmotor wat
daar staan. Jasper se kort hare gaan staan nog regopper as
gewoonlik, maar hy besluit om deur te druk met sy ondersoek. Hy is
immers die leier van die Viermanskap. Maar hy moes liewer net daar
omgedraai en teruggestap het skoolbus toe. Dit sou beter gewees het
vir almal … Kom deel in die avonture van Jasper!
