"Welcome to the library... A room packed with stories from ceiling
to floor, Shelves of adventures for you to explore. But each book
has two stories -- the tale the words tell, And the tale of the
journey it's been on as well." This is the story of one incredible
library book and all the children who've borrowed it. It's been
hugged, lost, torn, chewed by a dog and soaked in the rain. It's
been read in apartments and in tents, in the park and in the
classroom; by children in costumes and pyjamas, reading alone or
with their friends, their siblings and their parents. Each time it
returns to the library it's a little more worn, but a lot more
loved. For every rip, scribble or stain there's a child who has
found adventure or escape, comfort or excitement in its pages.
That's the magic of a library book! This fun, rhyming text from
Caroline Crowe celebrates a love of books and libraries, the joy of
discovering a new favourite read, and of sharing it with others.
New York Times-bestseller John Joseph's bright and joyful
illustrations bring a diverse cast of children to life with humour
and enthusiasm.
Het jy al ooit gewonder hoe die wereld gelyk het toe jou pa klein
was? Was daar al dinge soos skole, kantore, yskaste en TV’s? Hoe
het mense vir mekaar sonder e-pos boodskappe gestuur? Het hulle
regtig doodgegaan van iets soos verkoue omdat daar nog nie medisyne
was nie? Die skrywer neem die leser terug na prehistoriese tye waar
die wereld baie meer primitief en gevaarlik was. Groot illustrasies
in waterverf en bruin potlood word telkens met 'n gepaste
skreeusnaakse kort sin vergesel.'n Skreeusnaakse boek vir kinders
wat vermoed dat hulle pa’s uit 'n ander wereld kom.
Piggy is back, and his newest plot is his most diabolical yet. Dog

forward to save the city when scoundrels sabotage our Supa Buddies?

Plastic Bag’s Travels is a children’s book for young people between the ages 5 to 8 year-olds. The story is accessible and humorous, and has an unusual twist.
It is about a blue and white shopping bag called Plastic Bag which goes on an adventure, and meets up with its friends bobbing in the sea. The friends are unhappy about being in the ocean and have fantasies of where and what they would really like to be.
The book focuses on the issue of recycling and conservation of the natural environment, and could be used in awareness workshops with young people.
Praise for The Problem With Problems: 'A masterclass in how to do
children's self help well... the medicine will go down very easily'

really excitement all along! One thing's for sure... often the
things you fear are more afraid of you. Also in the series: The
