Wanneer Tomas ’n draakvrugboom in sy oupa se tuin ontdek en ’n klein drakie uit een van die vrugte bars, ontdek hy dat drake baie meer moeite is as komkommers! Daar is ontploffende draakbolle oral ‒ selfs eenkeer in Oupa se ontbytgraan ‒ die huiskat word gedurig rondgejaag en Tomas se tandeborsel (en ander persoonlike items) word gereeld brandgesteek. Maar dis darem nie net chaos en ontploffende draakbolle nie! Die eerste keer toe Flikker sy stert om Tomas se nek krul en hom met sy groot diamant-oë kyk, kom Tomas agter dat daar heelwat meer as net towerkrag in drake steek. Maar as jy ’n draak het moet jy dit geheim hou, want wie wil nie hulle eie draak hę nie?

Written by the brilliant Julia Donaldson and stunningly illustrated by
the award-winning Sara Ogilvie, The Hospital Dog is a big-hearted tale
about a very special, very brave dog.
Here is a dog, a Dalmatian called Dot,
Is she quite ordinary? NO, SHE’S NOT!
After their breakfast and a swim in the sea, Dot and her owner Rose
jump on the bus to the hospital. Dot loves visiting the children of
Wallaby Ward and they’re always pleased to see her too; from a crying
baby to a bored teenager – a pat, a stroke and a cuddle with Dot cheers
everyone up. But the work of the hospital dog doesn’t stop there and
when one of her patients is in trouble, it’s up to Dot to save the day!
A fantastic rhyming story from the creators of the bestselling picture
book, The Detective Dog – winner of the Books Are My Bag Readers' Award.
What do three murderers, Karl Marx's daughter and a vegetarian
vicar have in common? They all helped create the Oxford English
Dictionary. The Oxford English Dictionary has long been associated
with elite institutions and Victorian men; its longest-serving
editor, James Murray, devoted 36 years to the project, as far as
the letter T. But the Dictionary didn't just belong to the experts;
it relied on contributions from members of the public. By the time
it was finished in 1928 its 414,825 entries had been crowdsourced
from a surprising and diverse group of people, from archaeologists
and astronomers to murderers, naturists, novelists, pornographers,
queer couples, suffragists, vicars and vegetarians. Lexicographer
Sarah Ogilvie dives deep into previously untapped archives to tell
a people's history of the OED. She traces the lives of thousands of
contributors who defined the English language, from the eccentric
autodidacts to the family groups who made word-collection their
passion. With generosity and brio, Ogilvie reveals, for the first
time, the full story of the making of one of the most famous books
in the world - and celebrates to sparkling effect the extraordinary
efforts of the Dictionary People.
