Wat sal jy doen as jy die LOTTO wen? Dit is die vraag wat Werner, TC en
Einstein hulself afvra een pouse. Soos die meeste graad 9 seuns, droom
hulle oor sportmotors en privaat vliegtuie. Vir die grap besluit die
drie seuns om regtig elkeen 'n LOTTO-kaartjie te koop. Hulle vat vir
Oupa Ig (Werner se oupa wat Alzheimers het) om €œroomys€ te koop, en
sonder dat hy besef wat aangaan speel hulle die LOTTO. Dan gebeur die
onverwagte: hulle wen wraggies meer as R3 miljoen! Werner voel baie
skuldig oor hoe hulle sy siek oupa misbruik het, en hulle besluit om
nie die geld te eis nie ... maar dan verloor Werner se ma haar werk.
Oupa Ig se gesondheid begin agteruitgaan, en Werner is baie bang sy ma
trou met die nare oom Daan. Nou begin die groot uitdaging: sy ma glo
dobbel is doodsonde, so hoe op aarde gaan hulle die geld by haar
uitkry? JEUGROMANKOMPETISIE 2019: BESTE DEBUUT.

For the first time in paperback, this Oxford Roald Dahl Dictionary
takes readers aged 8+ on a phizz-whizzing, splendiferous,
fantabulous journey deep into the language of Roald Dahl's
bestselling children's stories. This is a dictionary which will
develop language and literacy skills by igniting the creativity in
all readers and writers everywhere. Lots of dictionaries tell you
what an 'alligator' is, or how to spell 'balloon' but they won't
explain the difference between a 'ringbeller' and a
'trogglehumper', or say why witches need 'gruntles' eggs' or
suggest a word for the shape of a 'Knid'. This dictionary does all
those things. All the words that Roald Dahl invented are here, like
'biffsquiggled' and 'whizzpopping' to remind you what means what,
but that is not all. You'll also find out where words came from,
rhyming words, synonyms and lots of alternative words for words
that are overused. Oxford Children's Dictionaries are perfect for
supporting literacy and learning and this is the world's first
Roald Dahl Dictionary from the word experts at Oxford University
Press.
