Lottie Brooks is byna 12 jaar oud en haar lewe is amptelik verby. Sy gaan amper hoërskool toe sonder enige vriende aan haar sy of ’n swierige kapsel. Boonop het sy besef dat sy te plat is om ’n BRA te dra! Sy kan maar net so wel opgee en hiberneer saam met haar hamsters.

Lottie kry die hoofrol in ’n musiekblyspel en dit gee haar die kans om vir Daniel te beïndruk met haar talent as ’n singende krap, maar dis nie net sang en dans by die skool nie. Lottie se vriendskap met Mieke en Jess is aan’t skerwe, maak nie saak hoe hard sy probeer om almal bymekaar te hou nie. Gaan Lottie weer ’n verbysterende bestie-blaps beleef?

Sal Kaptein Onderbroek, die held met die rooi mantel, die skool en kinders kan red? Of sal die drie kostannies uit die ruimte hom vir middagete verslind?

Kan ’n ongewone stokperdjie jou span se rugbytoer red? Hoe ver sal jy gaan om seker te maak jy het genoeg tydvir soveel sportsoorte as moontlik? Kan ’n klomp vrotperskes die begin van ’n cool nuwe sportsoort wees?

Hierdie boek bevat 7 sportstories wat jou tone sal laatomkrul van lekkerkry!

Die druk laai op teen Greg Heffley, wat ontdek dat ’n kombinasie van ’n spul familielede, ’n piepklein strandhuisie en versengende hitte ’n rampresep is.

Van resepte gepraat – die geheime bestanddeel in Ouma se beroemde frikkadelle is jare lank dig bewaar. Kan Greg al sy familie se raaisels opklaar voor die vakansie verby is? Of gaan hy net aan die kookpot karring?

Lottie Brooks is BACK for more extremely embarrassing adventures as she goes on holiday and gets her very first boyfriend!

THINGS THAT ARE RUBBISH IN MY LIFE:

· Have the most disgusting little brother in the entire world
· Have to get braces when am on the brink of having my first kiss
· Mum is making cottage pie for dinner. VOM.

Finally summer has arrived and Lottie has BIG plans - scrolling through Instagram, dreaming about MEGA-crush Daniel and sunbathing by the pool on their family holiday to France.

Then Lottie meets new CRUSH Antoine. The language is a tiny bit of a barrier but does it matter when he's THAT good looking?

Lottie Brooks is BACK and she's as BRILLIANT as ever!

At long last Lottie and Daniel are an official couple and everything seems to be going brilliantly (except for Amber being increasingly mean and jealous, but what's new there?).

Meanwhile Toby's new year's resolution is to get a dog, and for once Lottie and him see eye to eye. Pot Noodle, the cockapoo, becomes the newest member of the Brooks family. He's VERY cute but also not toilet trained AT ALL.

Lottie soon finds having a new boyfriend and a new dog means she has little time for anyone else, leaving her best friends pretty upset. How is Lottie meant to keep everybody happy and stop Pot Noodle from pooing on the carpet?!

Perfect for readers aged 9-12 and for fans of Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging, Dork Diaries and Wimpy Kid.

Die dagboekstyl en prettige illustrasies sal sorg dat lesers van 8 tot 12 jaar die sjarmante Lotta se eskapades onweerstaanbaar vind. Dit is die een katastrofe ná die ander in Lotta se lawwe lewe. Haar avonture is egter altyd vol pret, humor en verrassings!

From hilarious bestselling author, Katie Kirby, comes a brand-new Lottie Brooks story. This time it's CHRISTMAS!!!

Dear Santa,

For Christmas this year, I would like:

Two hundred KitKat chunkies (full-size not multipack)
Baby Bella to stop shouting 'BUM' in public spaces
A new brother who doesn't fart on me and call it a 'tasty air biscuit'
Antoine or Daniel (I can't decide!) to surprise me on Christmas Day with a grand romantic gesture
Cash (lots of it!)
A new diary (I'm really getting through them!)

Lots of love,

Lottie xxx

PS. Please could you put a chocolate orange instead of a real orange in my stocking this year?

Lottie Brooks LOVES Christmas - there's presents, all the KitKat Chunkys you can eat AND no school for two weeks! But this year, Christmas might be a bit more chaotic than usual. The whole Brooks family are visiting for the festive break (along with some surprise visitors . . .), there's a Secret Santa to organise, and the hammies won't stop attacking Gavin, the Elf on the Shelf!

Will Lottie survive the festivities intact or will she have to hide in the fort of shame until it's all over?

It is 2003 – ten years since Spud Milton’s class of 93 matriculated. Despite their seemingly unbreakable bond, the Crazy Eight – Rambo, Mad Dog, Vern, Fatty, Garth Garlic, Boggo, Simon and Spud – have not kept in touch. An invitation from the school to attend the ten-year reunion weekend has an unsettling effect on the former scholarship boy. One thing Spud knows for sure: there is no way he’ll be attending the reunion. The prospect of having to reveal his decade of spectacular non-achievement to his former classmates hardens his resolve.

At twenty-eight Spud is stuck in a one-third life crisis. His glittering theatre career might have stalled before it’s even begun. Not only that, he still doesn’t have a girlfriend and circumstances have forced him to move back in with his parents and Wombat, his senile grandmother.

But Spud hasn’t reckoned with a bombardment of messages and darkly threatening phone calls about the reunion that see his curiosity piqued. It’s just a weekend, after all … what could possibly go wrong?

Doktor Bleek is dalk nie so wild soos mevrou Org of so vreemd soos juffrou Putia nie, maar hy neem die skool terug na die vorige eeu toe. Toe die klas probeer om teen doktor Bleek se streng nuwe reëls te protesteer, lyk dit asof ’n nuwe leerling hulle wil verdeel – Mike Nuss. Mike is slim, snaaks en perfek ... te perfek. Kan Arlo die raaisel betyds oplos om die skool te red? “4X is die wildste, stoutste en luiste klas wat ek ooit moes trotseer.” Dinge lyk glad nie goed vir 4X nie.

It is 2003 – ten years since Spud Milton’s class of 93 matriculated and the boys went their separate ways. Despite their seemingly unbreakable bond, the Crazy 8 – Rambo, Mad Dog, Vern, Fatty, Garth Garlic, Boggo, Simon and Spud – have not kept in touch. Or at least, not as far as Spud knows. When he receives an invitation from the school to attend the 10 Year Reunion weekend, Spud is determined to avoid the event at all costs, but he hasn’t reckoned with the bombardment of intrusive messages and threatening phone calls from his former dorm mates. No one is going to bend his arm, not this time; he is immune to peer pressure and wise to Rambo’s devious manipulation techniques. Spud has moved on. And, anyway, he has enough to worry about on the home front.

At 28 Spud is stuck in a one-third life crisis. Reflecting on a decade of spectacular non-achievement, at a point where he’s coming to realise that his glittering stage career might have stalled before it’s even begun, casts him into deep gloom. For the former scholarship kid, the prospect of once again having to measure up to his blue-blooded school friends – and be found wanting – has him riddled with anxiety. Not only that. Spud still doesn’t have a serious girlfriend, which has seen him resort to a questionable international bathsexting relationship with an old flame. Not to mention that circumstances have forced him to move back in with his parents and his senile grandmother, Wombat, whose walks never end where they began.

After a wildly unsuccessful fishing trip with his father, as well as a return to his old way of figuring things out – writing in his diary – to his own surprise, Spud finds his reunion resistance crumbling. Curiosity and courage win the day. It’s just a weekend, after all … what could possibly go wrong?
