Een oggend wil Kareltjie niks eet nie. Mamma Krokodil is bekommerd
en vra: “Is jy seker? Wil jy nie een van hierdie heerlike, sagte
piesangs he nie?” “Nee dankie, Mamma,” antwoord Kareltjie. “Vandag

A warm and funny eco-adventure with a clever message about looking
after our blue planet, perfect for budding David Attenboroughs!
When Little Fish and her family encounter an odd new fish bobbing
along on its own, they embark on an exciting journey to reunite it
with its family. But Odd Fish isn't the only creature who needs
Little Fish's help. Turtle has a tummy ache and Octopus's tentacles
are tangled. Clever readers will spot the one thing that links them
all . . . plastic. Maybe Odd Fish doesn't belong in the sea after
all? Eight million tonnes of plastic find their way into our oceans
and rivers every year. That's equal to dumping one rubbish truck
every minute into the sea! This urgent problem is highlighted for
the youngest readers with gentle humour and engaging characters,
and offers practical ways we we can all make a real difference to
protect our oceans and the creatures that live in them, and opens
up key discussions about the environment and the topical issues
highlighted in David Attenborough's Blue Planet.
