“Hiep hoera!” skree Janneman. “Oplaas het ek my jeti!” Maar die
monster grom en brom verstom: “My naam is liewe Bettie!” Kom soek
saam met Janneman na die jeti. Met net 'n kaart, 'n warm mus en 'n
blik spaghetti in sy rugsak, klim Janneman teen 'n berg uit en as
hy bo kom, sien hy dadelik die jeti! Maar wag so bietjie...kyk net
daardie lipstiffie! Kan dit regtig die jeti wees? Spaghetti with
the yeti is in 2013 benoem vir die Roald Dahl funny prize. Die
snaakse avontuurverhaal is nou in Philip de Vos se sprankelende
Afrikaanse rymvertaling beskikbaar!

top of a mountain spring, through varying landscapes, and follows a
river's journey from its source to the sea. With a focus on the
important role waterways play in human and environmental survival,
The River That Flows Beside Me explores the changing landscapes
along a river's journey and the habits and ecosystems that call the
river their home. A follow-up to The Street Beneath My Feet, The
Skies Above My Eyes and The Sea Below My Toes, this visually
stunning book finds the river in the rocky peaks, and tracks it as
it winds its way through coniferous forest, gushes through v-shaped
valleys, and roars down magnificent waterfalls. Further downstream,
readers will journey with the river past beaver dams, floodplains,
oxbow lakes, paddle-boarders, bridges and more. On your
journey, meet the animals that call the river home, including:
White-tailed deer Grizzly bears Otter Smallmouth bass
Dragonflies With a primary focus on the river's ecosystems,
wildlife and geological processesThe River That Flows Beside Me
also explores the way that humans interact with the river
landscape, using it both to survive and also to enjoy. The beauty
and variety of river landscapes are bought to life by Jo Empson's
rich illustrations. This book is part of the Look Closer
series, a set of concertina books that help teach us about the
mysteries and wonders that are found in the world around us.
From the Look Closer series, this richly illustrated concertina
book takes you on a journey through the deep dark waters, all the
way down to the seabed, before floating back up to the surface. A
follow-up to The Street Beneath My Feet, The Skies Above My Eyes
and The World Around Me, this visually stunning book ventures to
the very bottom of the sea on a journey of discovery. Through the
waves and into the deep, you'll spot all kinds of weird and
wonderful marine creatures, explore the seabed and discover the
impact humans have had on the underwater world. As you dive below
the surface, past sea otters playing in fields of giant kelp, you
will see sea lions and shoals of mackerel playing in the shallows,
before passing orcas hunting in pods in the deeper water. As well
as animals, discover the technology which is used under the sea,
from scuba breathing apparatus to oil pipelines and deep sea
submarines. As you reach the very bottom of the sea, the 'twilight
zone' where very little light can filter through, you will meet the
mysterious creatures of the deep such as Lanternfish and the
luminous swell shark. This book is part of the Look Closer series,
a set of concertina books which help teach us about the mysteries
which can be found in the world around us.

skies above your eyes? Take a journey up into the air, through the
atmosphere, way out into space and back down to Earth in this
richly illustrated concertina book. Zoom past the technology that
fills our skies, from helicopters, fighter jets, weather balloons,

yourself lying on your back wondering at the thought of the whole
universe above your head. From jet trails to comets' tails, enjoy
