“Daar was eenmaal ’n pragtige dogtertjie met ’n hart so groot soos haar naam, Kantiga. Maar Kantiga hou nie van haar naam nie.” Toe haar ouma dit hoor, vertel sy vir haar ’n familiestorie van die towerkleipot wat lyk of dit nutteloos is omdat dit gekraak en stukkend is. Maar ons leer hoe juis hierdie swak plek dit meer as perfek maak. Volg hierdie pragtige verhaal, vol kleur en folklore, waarin Kantiga die perfekte naam probeer vind, en op die reis meer leer van wie sy is en waar sy vandaan kom.

Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief is the first bestselling book in Rick Riordan's phenomenally successful Percy Jackson series. Half boy. Half God. ALL Hero. Look, I didn't want to be a half-blood. I never asked to be the son of a Greek God. I was just a normal kid, going to school, playing basketball, skateboarding. The usual. Until I accidentally vaporized my maths teacher. Now I spend my time battling monsters and generally trying to stay alive. This is the one where Zeus, God of the Sky, thinks I've stolen his lightning bolt - and making Zeus angry is a very bad idea.
Hy kan vlieg.
In the prettiest parts of the Forest of Hearts, a cute little unicorn was born. Its mane was puffy, its fur SUPER fluffy... But as adorable as it looked, it didn't behave like the other unicorns in its herd. 'NO' was its favourite word! No matter how many sweet lucky clovers or soft squishy cuddles that the other unicorns offered, the answer was always 'NO'. And so this unicorn became known as the uNOcorn. It's no surprise that one day our contrary unicorn decides to break free of its cotton-candy world and have an adventure of its own. Along the way, the uNOcorn meets a raccoon who never listens ('Huh?'), a dog who doesn't care ('So what?') and a rude princess (whose favourite word is 'YES!'). What a wonderful team they make, because being stubborn is much more fun together!
