Gerrie Radlof se gewilde Oloff die Seerowerreeks is oorspronklik
tussen 1957 en 1961 uitgegee en het daarna reeds vier uitgawes
beleef. Die verhale, wat in die 1740's afspeel aan die Kaap de
Goede Hoop en die seewee daarom heen, is verwerk om aan te pas by
die moderne taalgebruik en aan te sluit by die hedendaagse tiener,
maar niks van die oorspronklike sjarme en spanning het in die
verwerking verlore gegaan nie. Ook geskik as leesstof vir Afrikaans
tweede taal vir ouer leerlinge.
The epic second book in the action-packed and empowering
middle-grade superhero series. Perfect for 8+ fans of Percy
Jackson, Amari and the Night Brothers and Black Panther. Soon to be
a feature film with a major streamer! Power bursts through my body,
and I gasp as my hair shoots out like an avenging sword. It slashes
a line through the wooden decking of the walkway. With a deafening
crack, the wood breaks apart, splintering with the force of the
impact. Having uncovered head teacher Dr Doyinbo's hidden agenda
behind the Academy of the Sun, Onyeka and her friends are on the
run. But they've got bigger problems to worry about - they
desperately need to find a way to restore Niyi's Ike superpower and
they need to locate Onyeka's missing parents. When their last safe
house is uncovered, Onyeka turns to the only potential allies they
have left; the Rogues, a group of rebels that have been trying to
expose Dr Doyinbo's lies for years. Joining forces, will the two
groups be able to defeat their shared nemesis, or is there a new
danger on the horizon for the Solari? Praise for Onyeka and the
Academy of the Sun: 'Exhilarating and original, Onyeka is the
superhero you've been waiting for.' Kiran Millwood Hargrave, author

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

Willow's dad has disappeared: stolen by foxes in the night. To find
him, Willow must enter the secret world of the Forest. There she
will speak with wolves and find the magical Tower where the foxes
are ruled by their silver tongued leader, Reynard. In the Tower,
Willow sees wonders: statues walking the streets, spires reaching
to the stars, and a lion who wants to be king. But disaster is
near. The magic is running out and soon the Tower will fall. Can
Willow save her dad and find a way out of the Fox's Tower?
