An amazing tale of heroism and ingenuity, this dramatic picture
book tells the story of Sir Ernest Shackleton's incredible
adventure in the heroic age of Antarctic exploration. August, 1914:
Shackleton sets off from England with a team of explorers to walk
across the Antarctic and study the icy depths of this little-known
and forbidding continent. Sailing through some of the most perilous
seas, the Endurance becomes trapped in the deadly pack ice of the
Weddell Sea. When the Endurance is eventually crushed between the
vast bulk of two floating icebergs, the men are forced to abandon
ship and make the dangerous journey across the crushing sea in
lifeboats. They reach relative safety on the uninhabited Elephant
Island, but an even greater peril faces Shackleton and five other
members of the crew... An incredible real-life story of
perseverance, resilience and cooperation in the face of adversity,
Ice Trap! makes Shackleton's most perilous expedition accessible to
a new generation of readers. As we approach the 100th anniversary
of Shackleton's death, keep his legacy alive with this exciting and
beautifully illustrated telling of his boldest journey.

moerasvark, en vreemder as 'n watsedinges? Gaan jy dit waag om

A fun story of bad behaviour and its consequences. A small pet fish
is flushed down the toilet by a very naughty boy. Once the small
fish journeys out to sea we then see, one by one, small fish become
the dinner for bigger ones. Eventually a fisherman catches the
largest fish, which ends up on the plate of . . . the naughty boy!
This light-hearted tale then shows the naughty boy on the beach,
where he meets a hungry whale and finally gets his comeuppance.
This beautifully illustrated and heartwarming tale tells the story
of the surprising friendship between a young boy and the dragon who
drops into his life quite by surprise! George knows something isn't
right when he finds more than he bargained for under his mother's
favourite chicken....but when the egg hatches he finds himself
looking after a baby dragon! George takes his job as a parent
seriously, teaching the hatchling all sorts of 'dragony' ways. From
the fine art of flying to breathing fire, from how to distress a
damsel to how to defeat a knight, George makes sure to teach the
young dragon everything it will need to thrive. However, as time
goes on the dragon begins to pine for his own kind, and one day he
disappears, leaving George heartbroken... Where has the dragon
disappeared to? Will the boy and his dragon ever be reunited? This
tale will be loved by children and adults alike, who will treasure
the wonderful hand-painted illustrations just as much as the moving
story in this touching tale of fantasy, family and kinship.
