Abygale Aardvark and her Wildlife Friends is a carefully researched
and beautifully presented book for readers of all ages dedicated to
the urgent need to protect and enrich the wonderful wildlife of
Africa. While each of the twenty stories is introduced and
commented on by fictional character Abygale Aardvark, she leaves
the actual story-telling to the real wildlife characters
themselves, so that Aardvarks, Aardwolfs, Giraffes, Hornbills,
Baboons, White-eyes, Impala, Red-billed Oxpeckers, Cape Buffalo,
Red-chested Cuckoos and even Honey-Bees and Termites have a chance
to tell their stories - who they are 'friends with and how they
work together 'for a better life'.
'n Paar jaar gelede het 'n sending van die beroemde Willem skeefgeloop
en het hy in Kaapstad by die DBV beland. Dis waar Adriaan en sy ouers
die oulike swartenwit spanjoelhondjie raakgeloop het. En nou is Adriaan
en Willem onafskeidbaar. Hierdie tweede omnibus bevat nog drie
lekkerleesavonture: Hulle reis na die Internasionale Ruimtestasie (ja,
honde in die ruimte is nie so ongewoon nie!), NewYork en Namibië, en
oral wag daar speurwerk.

Niemand is bestand teen die uitgeslape Jakkals se poetse nie, en die een wat hom probeer terugkry, kom steeds die slegste daarvan af. Maar soms loop Jakkals tog sy rieme styf en dan moet hy net bontstaan met sy slim bek om uit die moeilikheid te kom, want dis gewoonlik diep moeilikheid!

A mother tells her child a bedtime story – the true story of Ming the Giant Panda. Born in the mountains of Sichuan, Ming's life is traced from a tiny baby, growing up in the wild. Brought from China to London Zoo in 1938, she quickly becomes a favourite for visitors, especially children. Even Princess Elizabeth, the future Queen, comes to see her. And when the Second World War breaks out, Ming becomes an international celebrity, a symbol of hope in dangerous times. When Ming dies in 1944 there is great sadness, but her story lives on, "helping to bring people together, shining light and giving hope." Told as a story within a story, with Yu Rong's evocative illustrations, Ming’s story still resonates today.
