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?
A search for the Beast, a Yeti-like creature within the heart of the Amazon, becomes a quest for self-discovery in this young adult coming-of-age story filled with international adventure, rich mythology, and magical realism from globally celebrated novelist Isabel Allende.
Fifteen-year-old Alexander Cold has the chance to take the trip of a lifetime. Parting from his family and ill mother, Alexander joins his fearless grandmother, a magazine reporter for International Geographic, on an expedition to the dangerous, remote world of the Amazon. Their mission, along with the others on their team--including a celebrated anthropologist, a local guide and his young daughter Nadia, and a doctor--is to document the legendary Yeti of the Amazon known as the Beast.
Under the dense canopy of the jungle, Alexander is amazed to discover much more than he could have imagined about the hidden worlds of the rain forest. Drawing on the strength of the jaguar, the totemic animal Alexander finds within himself, and the eagle, Nadia's spirit guide, both young people are led by the invisible People of the Mist on a thrilling and unforgettable journey to the ultimate discovery.
It's Christmas Eve and Noah, Max and Tabby have gone for a quick
adventure down the secret slide. They learn about the magic of
Garden's Gate but something is stopping them from getting home.
Will they figure it out before the bell rings? Join the children
for a wintery adventure in the Garden of Ice and Snow.

Wanneer Sakkibiaan, ’n seuntjie van Dorslandtrekkers, wegdwaal van sy familie terwyl hulle deur die Kalahari na Angola trek, maak groot hartseer gou plek vir groot avontuur. Sy pad kruis met dié van twee donker woestynmense en jagmaats: Doemdoempie en Gagaboemboem. Terwyl Doemdoempie met sy mooi hart graag sy nuwe wit broertjie wil help, wil Gagaboemboem met sy swart hart graag biltong van Sakkibiaan maak! Sakkibiaan moet vinnig die geheime taal van die woestyndiere en –insekte leer verstaan om met Doemdoempie kragte saam te span teen Gaggaboemboem en sy bende.
’n Wêreld vol geheimenisse ontvou namate Doemdoempie en Sakkibiaan met hul nuwe familie – waaronder die reuseboomsprinkaan Tjierlabaai, die rooioog-rivierwese Liewenatan en die mak silwerrugjakkals Peppitan – hul vyande moet trotseer en deur die Kalahari trek.
Uiteindelik lei die reis Sakkibiaan op ’n toweragtige pelgrimstog wat bewys: “Vir hulle wat nog nie al die vrae van die lewe kan beantwoord nie, lê daar nog ’n lekker lang pad voor met baie spoortjies daarop.”

coming back to life. The balance of magic is perilous, and for one
city to flourish, another must fall...
