Jamie Lee wants to be normal. But his ADHD makes him feel like his
brain is full of butterflies. Elin Watts wants to be perfect. If
she can be, surely her dad will come home. When Jamie and Elin's
families blend, the polar opposites of chaotic Jamie and ordered
Elin collide. As their lives spiral out of control, Jamie and Elin
discover that they're actually more alike than they'd admit. Maybe
there's no such thing as normal, or perfect. And perhaps, just like
families, happy-ever-afters come in all shapes and sizes. Uplifting
and moving, The Boy with the Butterfly Mind is an inspiring story
of acceptance, blended families, and discovering that in the end,
being yourself is more than enough.

Funny, emotional and uplifting picture book about separation and
love, to help children understand their emotions. Everyone loves
everyone in Tess's house, but when Tess has to leave for school for
the very first time, she is worried that her family's love might
not stretch that far. Mum explains that love is like a string, it
connects people together even when they are far away. At school
Tess notices that all the children have strings! Some are new, some
are old, some stretch a long way, and some even stretch right up
into the sky. But what happens when a string breaks? Love is the
third in a trio of feel-good picture books from author Corrinne
Averiss (Joy (2018), Hope (2019)) - a pure delight from start to
finish. A wonderful story that subtly tackles difficult topics of
death, grief, separation and overcoming anxiety.
In Balancing act: South African gay and lesbian youth speak out,

The email arrives Sunday night: Do exactly what I say, when I say it, or I will reveal your secret.
On Monday morning, seventh graders Owen, Gemma, Ally, and Todd, who have nothing in common and barely know each other, must work together and follow the instructions of an anonymous blackmailer. None of them want to go along with the blackmailer's strange instructions, but each of them have a secret they must protect at all costs.
Set during a single day of school, the students race against the clock to complete a unsettling list of tasks. They'll do whatever it takes to keep their secrets hidden . . . but when they discover what the blackmailer has in mind, they realize things may have just gone too far. Can they put a stop to the plan, or is it too late?
Jou liggaam verander, nuwe emosies verwar jou en jy het honderd
duisend vrae wat jy nie weet hoe of vir wie om te vra nie. Jy is
skielik fyngevoelig, selfbewus en sommer net moeilik... Maar
hoekom? En hoekom is daardie pes van ’n meisiekind ewe skielik vir
jou so oulik? As al die bogenoemde waar is, is hierdie boek vir
jou. Want jy is ’n “puber” en ’n nuwe wereld gaan vir jou oop.
Selfs nog voor jongmense vir die eerste keer seks en seksualiteit
ondervind, wonder meisies en seuns reeds ’n geruime tyd oor al
hierdie dinge. Ouers weet meestal nie hoe om sulke sensitiewe vrae
te beantwoord nie en het nie noodwendig tyd om by te hou met wat in
hul tienerkinders se koppe aangaan nie. Met die gevaar van
ongekontroleerde bronne op die internet vandag, is dit belangrik om
die regte inligting van ’n betroubare bron te verkry, en dis wat
hierdie boek poog om te doen. Jan von Holleben het op by kreatiewe
en prettige wyse die avontuur van grootword deur middel van foto’s
daargestel, en Antje Helms gee insiggewende antwoorde op ’n
direkte, maar sensitiewe, manier. Die boek bied antwoorde op
allerhande vrae oor puberteit en seks wat jongmense nie noodwendig
vir hul ouers wil vra nie.
