The electrifying sequel to Wilbur Smith's new series for the next
generation - starring teen protagonists Ralph and Robyn Ballantyne.
In the wild Lebombo Mountains of South Africa, Ralph and Robyn are
on the run from the nefarious Josef Gerhard. His beastly man-made
predasaurs have unleashed a deadly virus and only the Ballantynes
have the evidence to prove it. They need to regroup and plan their
next move if they want to stop him before it's too late and find a
cure for the virus. But deep in the forest, dangers lurk; poachers
are circling, and Gerhard has a brand-new creation he wants to show
off, if he can lure the Ballantynes to its lair... Can they outrun
him in time to expose his monstrous crimes? And more importantly
will they make it out of the serpent's lair alive? Get ready for
more predasaurs, more betrayals and more action in the thrilling
sequel to PREY ZONE!
A Robot Squashed My Teacher is the laugh-out-loud, wacky adventure by Pooja Puri brilliantly illustrated by Allen Fatimaharan, the sequel to the Marcus Rashford Book Club Selected book A Dinosaur Ate My Sister.
Before you start reading, there are a few things you should know:
1. I, Esha Verma, am a genius inventor extraordinaire.
2. I like lists.
3. I did not mean to turn my teacher into a pigeon. Some things just can't be helped.
Esha Verma, her snotty apprentice Broccoli and his secretly cunning pet tortoise have a dream. They are going to win the legendary Brain Trophy – the ultimate inventing prize. This year's entry: The RoarEasy – a gadget that lets the user speak to animals.
But when Esha's arch-nemesis, fellow inventor Ernie, lands her in detention, the RoarEasy malfunctions and suddenly Monsieur Crépeau is TRANSFORMED INTO A PIGEON.
Luckily for Esha, she knows exactly what she needs to repair her invention and where to find it: locked away in the mysterious Central Research Laboratories.
She, Broccoli, Archibald and Monsieur Crépeau will have to go undercover and break into the labs before the competition to return Monsieur Crépeau to his human form. And with Ernie following them, determined to foil their plans as they face giant robots, killer plants, shrinking machines, robo-spiders, clouds that make you float and terrifying twisters, they're going to need all the help they can get to get out of this wacky pickle.
