Facto hears how the thousands of plant and animal species are spread across the different regions of South Africa. They’re almost like giant gardens with different species that have adapted to their conditions. The Flixies are excited about the amazing biodiversity in South Africa and they think that it’s a world record for a small country! The Teacher’s Guide includes:
Facto has discovered the Flixies! He eavesdrops on their conversations and by doing so, he learns interesting new facts about the earth and nature. In this story we find out where the Flixies live, where they get their information from and how Facto discovered them... The Teacher’s Guide includes:
Facto listens to what the Flixies have to say about water and learns that it is magical material! No form of life, as we know it, can exist without water. It is an amazing solvent as all food for animals and plants must first be dissolved in water before it can be absorbed. It also used for washing and cleansing and even to cool off. But our supply of usable water is actually extremely limited… The Teacher’s Guide includes:
Which was the most successful group in the entire animal kingdom? Facto finds out what contributed to the arthropods’ success and why they deserve the title of the first real land animals. The Flixies play a guessing game and they chat about crustaceans, multipedes, spiders and scorpions and the first animals that could fly – the insects! The Teacher’s Guide includes:
Grandpa Flex and Dux discuss the various kinds of reptiles. Flex explains how primitive vertebrates eventually managed to cope with life on land. Certain descendants of the amphibians had the features necessary to make exactly this possible! The Teacher’s Guide includes:
Annemarie van Haeringen ontvang in 2000 die Nederlandse Gouden Penseel-toekenning vir hierdie boek – ’n eer wat haar ook met Malmok (1999) en Beer is op Vlinder (2005) te beurt geval het.

The kids in Miss Hippo's classroom are terribly busy this morning! They play and have fun; they draw pictures and sing songs. But Hyena just can't stop giggling and guffawing. What on earth could be so funny? Find out for yourself in this very, very funny book and have double the fun when you read the jokes in a jokebook that is hidden in the middle section of the book!
Vertebrates and invertebrates! Hollow animals! Hollow animals, spiny skins, molluscs and worms! Facto finds out that there are mainly two large groups of animals – those which have backbones and skeletons of bone and cartilage and those without. Of the latter group, the simplest ones live in water and we discover the advantages of living in water… The Teacher’s Guide includes:
In this story the Flixies Learn about the winning recipe of the vertebrates – a skeleton of bones and cartilage inside the body, to which muscles could be attached. Vertebrates had unique features that enabled them to adapt to living on land. In this way many niches were filled, thereby opening up the land even further for the other forms of life! The Teacher’s Guide includes:

Dit is duidelik: Krokodil is verlief. Maar, soos dit gewoonlik maar gaan as iemand verlief is, is daar 'n klein probleempie … Die kameelperd op wie hy verlief is, is so veel langer as hy! Krokodil loop al dae lank rusteloos rond. Soms kry hy te koud, soms kry hy te warm, soms is hy bitter hartseer, soms is hy so gelukkig dat hy die hele wereld wil omhels.
Grandpa Flex tells an interesting story about the first vertebrates, fish, how they moved out of the water and their progress to life and land. Scientist had naturally guessed what the earliest clumsy, ancient fishes must have looked like to be able to crawl out of the water and explore life on land. Fossils were even found to support the scientists’ assumptions – fossils of giant lobe-finned fish, which had fins that looked like primitive legs! The Teacher’s Guide includes:
Our friend, the Flixies, learns how important the interaction between plants and animals is. They learn how plants, as they spread over the earth, also serve to keep the soil “stuck” to the earth with their roots. In flowering plants it is particularly the reproduction that developed quite cleverly and the Flixies are impressed with the ways in which plants distribute their seeds. The Teacher’s Guide includes:
The Flixies gather at the seaside, where a big variety of plants and animals can be found. They having a brainstorming session – a think-tank – to discuss the different reasons why biodiversity is so significant and the use shells and leaves to make posters so that they can what they’ve learnt with others. The Teacher’s Guide includes:
The Flixies are introduced to a new concept, biodiversity – the wide variety of all forms of life. Why must there be so many species? Are all these form of life necessary? Would Spaceship Earth not have worked not as well with only a few types of super-animals and super-plants on Earth? Dux explains to Blox that there are one hundred million different types of plants and animals to which people have already given names – and that there are still places on Earth where there are most probably types of life which must still be discovered and described! Facto simply cannot wait to hear more… The Teacher’s Guide includes:
Facto hears from the Flixies about a narrow strip of land near the coast of the Western and Southern Cape, where the most remarkable biome in the whole world can be found. It’s a biome that is so special and unique that it is considered one of the seven Plant Kingdoms of the world. Grandma Flox prepared special rainbow sosaties for the Flixies to nibble on while they listen to the wonderful story of the Cape Fynbos garden. The Teacher’s Guide includes:
This lively rhyming story with irresistible illustrations and phonic repetition is a delight to share with very young children. It can also be enjoyed by children who are starting to read for themselves. Simple rhyming text helps to develop early language and reading skills, and there are notes for parents about phonics and reading aloud together.
We call living things on Earth, crew members and not passengers… Flex and Dux tells us about the earth that is covered by a thin layer of atmosphere and stays in space exactly the right distance from the sun, in order to carry all living things and to keep them alive. We learn that plants, animals and humans, each one of them – no matter how big or small – has a niche (a place and task) to make life possible for all on Earth. The Flixies also learn about the cycle of meat eaters, plant eaters and decomposers! The Teacher’s Guide includes:
