Henry Bogget is an ordinary boy of just eight years old, and Henry has a secret. A secret that has been kept for many, many years. A secret about magic in London... In England, whenever someone changes the world and leaves their mark on history, a little round blue plaque is placed on the house where they once lived to make sure they can never be forgotten. With every discovery made, artwork painted or song written, a little trace of very powerful magic, an enchantment, is left behind. One night, not too long ago, Henry discovered this secret and his life changed forever. An adventure beyond his wildest dreams was about to begin.

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.”
