Dit mag dalk lyk of daar nie botter in Engela Goedhart se mond kan smelt nie, maar sy is beslis nie die soetste engeltjie nie!

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.

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?

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?

Lotta Liebenberg is elf jaar oud. Sy hou van pannekoek en is mal oor diere, maar eintlik is sy net doodgewoon. Baie meer doodgewoon as haar ouers en tweeling-raasbekboeties!

In Otters oral! is Lotta se beste vriendin, Chantelle, in die wolke, want haar ma het ’n man op ’n webwerf vir pasmaats ontmoet. Nou wil sy sommer vir almal ’n pasmaat soek! Miskien kan Lotta haar daarvan laat vergeet deur haar in die middel van die nag op ’n otter-avontuur te vat . . .

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!

’n Nuwe kwartaal, ’n nuwe onderwyser, maar Arlo vermoed reeds onraad. 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. Met nóg ’n onderwyser wat skreeuend weghol, wonder Arlo hoe lank die nuwe onderwyser sal uithou. Toe mevrou Org vir 4X dieretuin toe neem, weet Arlo hy sal moet seker maak dat 4X nie in die moeilikheid beland nie. Maar wat mevrou Org hulle nié gesê het nie is dat hierdie dieretuin nie ’n gewone dieretuin is nie …

Minki en haar twee beste maats, Natalie en Lara, kan nie wag vir hulle pajamapartytjie met ’n llama-tema nie. Hulle gaan llama-koekies bak en versier, hulle gaan hulle naels verf en llama-plakkers opplak en dan gaan hulle hulself trommeldik eet aan die lekkergoed in die llama-piñata wat Natalie self gemaak het.

Maar toe die aand van die pajamapartytjie uiteindelik aanbreek, loop die een ding na die ander skeef. Minki se tweeling-boeties byt die llama-koekies se koppe af, daar mors naellak op Natalie se splinternuwe nagklere en Lara is allergies vir die grondboontjies in die piñata-lekkers. Die pajamapartytjie waarna hulle so uitgesien het, is ’n reuse-flop! Gelukkig het Minki ’n slim plan om vir haar maats te wys dat hulle vriendskap enigiets kan oorleef …

Your Friend is My Friend is a collection of four plays written for Intermediate Phase learners who speak English as an additional language. The plays are fun, with relatable characters and accessible language. They are perfect for reading aloud or acting out in the classroom.

Minki en haar maats sien al weke lank uit na die skool se avontuurkamp. Hulle gaan in die bos kampeer, swem, kampvuuraande hou en in tente slaap. Boonop is daar allerhande lekker uitdagings waaraan hulle kan deelneem. Dit klink na vet pret! Maar Danika is vasbeslote om weer dinge vir Minki-hulle so goor as moontlik te maak. Sy besluit dat haar span as die Kampkampioene gekroon gaan word en dat niks in haar pad gaan staan nie. Nie eens al beteken dit sy moet vuil speel nie …

Het jy al ooit ’n goor week gehad? Justin Chase het! Ná ’n gespartel en gespook lewe hy darem nog ná ’n taai Maandag, Dinsdag, Woensdag en Donderdag. Maar nou is dit . . . Vrydag!

Net toe Justin dink sy woeste week kan nie woester word nie, bereik hy ’n nuwe laagtepunt. ’n Onderaardse ontbering. Op die bodem van ’n gapende gat. Die donkerste, diepste dieptes. Maak jou reg vir ’n bibberboud-belewenis!

ontvoer . Sy pa is meer verleentheid as ooit. Hy het onverwags op die ergste moontlike manier aanlyn virale geword. En wanneer die skoolfotodag met die Super Science Spectacular bots , is dit bestem om op te blaas in 'n haarverhoging, tandeversplinterende ramp van epiese proporsies!

WJ, sy suster Mindie, en hul beste vriend Raj, wil graag iets asemrowends aantrek vir die skool se kostuumdag aan die einde van Boekeweek. Hulle moet soos karakters uit hulle gunstelingboek aantrek en besluit op Die Drie Musketiers. Maar wanneer hulle in 'n vreemde oudhedewinkel op die perfekte bykomstighede vir hulle kostuums afkom, loop dinge lelik skeef. Nou is hulle Die Drie Muskiete! En hulle moet 'n wêreld van insekte en monsters oorleef om weer hul pad terug te vind huis toe.

George en Harold het al vir amper almal in Leergierig Laer ’n poets of twee gebak.

Wanneer hulle nuutste poets veroorsaak dat die skool se kostannies bedank, stel mnr. Mor drie ongewone tannies aan – wat boonop baie soos aliens lyk!

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?
