Gertie is a prime example of a goose who thinks she knows best but
soon realises the consequences of her actions. However, by this
point, it is too late and she has to use her initiative to get
herself out of a sticky situation. For ages 3-8 years old. This
sweet, entertaining story with beautiful hand drawn illustrations,
helps to reinforce the idea that children's parents or guardians
often know what is best for them, and when asking their children to
do something, it's usually for good reason! This book helps promote
the idea of the wisdom of elders, whilst growing independence and
confidence in one's own abilities, in a bedtime story that everyone
can enjoy.

Om te leer lees is een van die grootste avonture wat op enige kind
wag - en Krok en Dil is die perfekte maats om die opwindende reis
mee aan te pak! Die nuwe leesreeks uit die pen van Jaco Jacobs stel
kinders deur middel van prettige stories aan verskillende klanke
bekend. Die reeks het 'n sterk strokiesprent-aanslag, met volop
spraakborrels en fantastiese volkleurillustrasies deur Nadia du
Plessis, en die twee onwaarskynlike beste maats, 'n knorrige
krokodil en 'n lewenslustige komkommertjie, sal dadelik in
beginnerlesers se harte kruip. Jaco is self die pa van twee
dogtertjies, Mia (9) en Emma (7), wat die afgelope paar jaar leer
lees het, en hy se een van die grootste struikelblokke was om
toeganklike beginnerleesboeke op te spoor. "My kinders het
grootgeword met stories - van die heel lekkerste storieboeke in
Afrikaans en Engels wat aan hulle voorgelees is. Dit was daarom vir
hulle baie frustrerend as beginnerleesboeke net op die klanke
fokus, sonder 'n sterk, vermaaklike storielyn. Dit is waarom ek die
Krok en Dil-reeks begin skryf het - ek wou 'n leesreeks skryf wat
vir lesers - en ouers! - 'n prettige storie in elke boek bied, met
hope humor."
The story of a polar bear, named Cool, whoa s family and habitat
are being impacted by global warming. As a well-known footballer
with The Ready Bears, he decides to take action to try and make
humans change their ways.
