Het Nebula-mysterie

Explorer Academy #1

by Trudi Trueit

Avontuur, gevaar en een spannende missie rond de wereld. Dat staat de twaalfjarige Cruz Coronado allemaal te wachten als hij aan zijn eerste jaar aan de Explorer Academy begint. Een aantal bijzondere kinderen van over de hele wereld worden er opgeleid tot buitengewone Explorers. Maar voor Cruz staat er meer op het spel...

Niet lang nadat hij op de Explorer Academy aankomt, ontdekt hij dat zijn familie een mysterieus verleden heeft op een geheime afdeling van de National Geographic Society. Een verleden dat zijn toekomst in gevaar kan brengen. Terwijl hij codes moet ontcijferen, aan school werkt, nieuwe vrienden maakt en op expeditie gaat, blijft Cruz zich één ding afvragen: wie zit er achter hem aan...en waarom?

From my 8-year old son:

I like the mystery of what the nebula is. You can feel how the characters are feeling. I would want to know the heroes, but I wouldn't want to be in the situations that the villains put the main characters in. It's scary. I like how the book ended. I want to know what happens next.

From me:

I love the format of this book. It's mostly a novel, but it has really beautiful illustrations thrown in to break up the text. The layout makes the book fun to read. Cruz is a relatable kid, and I appreciate that ALL the kids in here are smart, independent, and brave. The story is entertaining and moves along quickly. The ending perfectly sets up the next book, and my son is looking forward to reading it. I would give it five stars, but my son said four.

Okay, this was really good! Really liked it!!! The adventure, the suspense, it's not super fast-paced, but still a very good book! Cruz is a nice character, Emmet is cool! Sailor is just, yeah awesome!!! Bryndis kind of, not some much on...Dugan is kind of funny...and Renshaw was fun!
Okay, so this is a short review but walk away with you should totally read this book! They are fun, enlightening, and just pretty great!

I am nine years old and this is one of my favorite books I have read. One of the things I like about it is that the story includes many science facts. The book is a real cliffhanger with a lot of action. If you read it you will always be looking forward to the next book in the series; I know I am!

Põnev lugu, kus 12-aastane Cruz Coronado asub õppima Avastajate Akadeemiasse - kooli, kus õpivad vaid kõige terasemad noored. Lisaks õppetööle püüab Cruz lahendada ka oma ema surmaga seotud saladuse. Nagu arvata võib, kõik ei lähe nii libedalt, kui tahaks. Põnevust jätkub viimaste lehekülgedeni. :)
Tegemist on fantaasialooga, kuid mis on üsna realistlik, sest paljud avastused on juba tehtud. :) Igal juhul sobiv raamat teismelistele teaduse populariseerimiseks.

Cruz has just been accepted into the elite Explorer Academy, which only accepts 25 students per year. In the midst of his classes on anthropology, science, geography, history, and conservation, Cruz also has training sessions in a virtual reality program designed to prepare the students for real-life exploring all over the globe. Then Cruz starts to receive threats from an unknown enemy, and discovers a mystery in the school. His mother died working in the top-secret labs at Explorer Academy, and Cruz is determined to find out what really happened to her.

I loved this book so much! The adventure, the mystery, the engaging characters, the impressive setting at the Academy... I love it all. But the best thing of all... the puzzles and codes!!! I LOVE puzzles and codes.

The plot is full of twists and turns, and there is so much history and depth to the story as Cruz discovers the murky past of the Academy. His mother's mysterious death provides a serious counterpoint for all the fun explorer training and student shenanigans.

I was really pleased with the futuristic tech in the Academy, from the virtual simulations to Cruz's tiny bumblebee robot. It's all so fascinating, and creates a rich setting for the story.

Cruz is such a relatable character. He has drive and energy that propels him into adventure, and he has a very high sense of honor and truth that is the foundation of his relationships with other characters, including friends and teachers and his family. I felt like I was racing along with him through every scene, puzzling through the mystery with him, and going through all the emotional ups and downs of his experiences right by his side. I cheered when he won, and clenched my fists when he was in danger, and cried a little when he mourned his mother's death.

All the supporting characters are memorable and refreshing. Cruz has friends among the students, and some frenemies too. The friends build trust and rapport with one another, and then they get annoyed at the frenemy characters who are trying to make trouble.

I really enjoyed seeing Cruz in class interacting with his teachers, since I am a teacher, and I love the classroom dynamic and the students' enthusiasm for learning. I also appreciated actually learning some real facts about exploring and conservation along the way!

His close relationships with his father and aunt are the root of Cruz's character, as we see how they guide and support him with their family love. I just adore the depth of those family ties.

I would recommend this book to readers aged 8 to 80 years. I can't wait to read more from this series!

Harry Potteri ja Morrigan Crow austajatele väga tore maiuspala, maagia asemel on teadus (või, ütleme, žanriks on fantaasia asemel teadusulme?), aga muidu sama lugu. no kuni sinnamaani välja, et ühel hetkel olin ühe tegelase kohta sunnitud ohkama "ah siis selline Quirrell seekord". ja eks ikka saab teismeliste trio uue kooliga kohaneda, sõprusi sõlmida, õpetajate/lapsevanemate maitse jaoks liigagi palju seiklusi läbida ja eeldatavasti pikapeale ka maailma päästa, ehkki selle viimaseni siin sarja esimeses osas veel päriselt ei jõutud. samas, milleks neid avastajaid seal akadeemias kasvatatakse. eks ikka selleks, et lapsed saaksid täiskasvanute pekkikeeratud maailma kuidagi jälle joonele ajada, ma usun.

siin seiklust ja teadust lajatatakse kohe sellise hooga, et tegelaste väljaarendamise aega jääb veidi väheks ja ma tegelikult ei saanud päris täpselt aru, milliste teadmiste ja omaduste najal peategelane Cruz nii edukas ja kiidetud on (arvestades, et maagilisi talente kellelgi ei avaldu ja teadusalaseid tundub ta sidekickidel pigem rohkem olevat). aga see vast siis tasapisi selgub järgmistes osades, mida võimalusel kindlasti lugeda plaanin. viienda tärni hoiangi varuks selle ootuses, et tegelastele veel mõned mõõtmed juurde tekiksid.

teadusosa kindlasti ongi selle sarja eelis ja erinevus võrreldes juba mainitud ja kõigi ülejäänud konkureerivate lasteseiklustega. tõesti põnev, haarav, eriline ja üpris usutavalt kirja pandud, ja mulle meeldis lõpus antud nimekiri pärismaailma päristeadlastest, kes samu või sarnaseid probleeme juba lahendavad ja tehnoloogiaid välja arendavad. (peaks küsima, kas 11-aastane, kes mulle seda raamatut silmade põledes soovitas, ka selle osa läbi töötas.)

A STEM adventure novel for fans of Rick Riordan and other fast-paced ensemble stories. Parents and grandparents will love the throwback feelings found after reading hardy boys and Nancy drew because these characters are solving mysteries making dangerous choices in hopes of discovering truth. Recommend for ages 9-12, readers who love gadgets, tinkering, solving puzzles, traveling, and adventure!

This is the type of book that I'll probably read dozens of times. It's the kind of book that I would never dare dog-ear the pages or toss it in a box like it's just some old book. This book is going to sit on my shelf for the rest of my life begging me to read it over and over. Yes! It's that good!

Really 4.5 stars. I am impressed with Nat Geo's first foray into fiction. I know the finished product will be even better, with completed illustrations and profiles. I am looking forward to the rest of the series. I sense that it will be popular with both the science and adventure readers.

Teadust ja seiklusi armastavatele teismelistele... või siis ka kogu perele. Põnevust jagub, õpetab sõpruse kohta ning näitab, kui habras on piir fantaasia ja teaduse vahel. Igati äge raamat!

کروز پسری است که موفق به کسب امتیاز ورودی به آکادمی کاوشگران شده. از کل دنیا تنها 23 نوجوان 12 ساله به این موفقیت دست یافته اند. کروز که سالها قبل مادرش نیز در این آکادمی فعالیت میکرده و البته در یک حادثه مشکوک در آزمایشگاه آکادمی کشته شده، با این مجموعه بیگانه نیست. حتی هم اکنون عمه‌اش نیز از اساتید آنجا است.
پیش از رفتن به آکادمی و همچنین در فرودگاه مقصد، دو اتفاق خطرناک برای او رخ میدهد که به نوعی هشداری برای او جهت نرفتن به آکادمی است. اما او به آنجا می‌رود و همراه با دوستانش در کنار آموزش های آکادمی و کلاس های تئوری و عملی، دچار اتفاقاتی نیز می شود. در یکی از این اتفاقات، او بخاطر دسیسه‌ای اخراج می‌شود اما پیش از ترک کامل آکادمی، او متوجه یک نامه از مادرش میشود که راز کشته شدنش در آن نهفته است. آکادمی نیز متوجه اشتباهش می‌شود و او بازمیگردد تا در کنار تحصیل در آکادمی، به راز قتل مادرش نیز پی ببرد.

یک‌کتاب با فضای داستان مدرسه ای است که امیدوارم در جلدهای بعدی جزئیاتش بیشتر شود وگرنه نویسنده داستان را حیف کرده است!

Le occasioni arrivano in tanti modi.
Non conta come le ottieni, ma ciò che ne fai.
Se da piccola avessi avuto modo di leggere questo libro credo che lo avrei adorato. Divertente e curioso, è un libro che non si legge solo, ma si vive. Questo perchè oltre a presentare una bella storia, avventurosa e mozzafiato, ha il grande pregio di spingere i giovani lettori a fare quel passetto in più, a documentarsi e a scoprire cosa c'è dietro alla fantasia dell'autrice. La grafica poi è veramente molto curata e colorata, invoglia a girare la pagina successiva per scoprire cos'altro l'illustratore, Scott Plumbe, abbia in serbo per noi.


@white star

Cruz è appena stato accettato alla prestigiosa Explorer Academy. Il mondo lo attende visto che lì lo istruiranno per diventare un vero esploratore. Nuovi amici, lezioni interessanti, nuove scoperte, Cruz non potrebbe essere più felice, anche perché lì lavorava sua madre, scomparsa quando lui aveva appena 5 anni. Ora può sentirsi più vicino a lei. Fin da subito però è chiaro che qualcuno non lo vuole lì, che qualcuno gli dà la caccia. Scoprirà chi e perchè? Scoprirà cosa è successo veramente a sua madre?

La storia di Cruz è piena di avventura e scoperta. Non si fa affatto fatica a proseguirla, ad andare avanti, perchè è puro intrattenimento e se siete un pelo curiosi continuerete a girare pagina dopo pagina.
E' una lettura per ragazzi e quindi ha, se vogliamo, le pecche che questo comporta: più di qualche elemento scontato, un'aura di buonismo che a volte fa venire un po' di orticaria (la cinica che è in me urla e si dimena), l'insistenza su aspetti palesi. Ma, superati questi problemi, non si può non notare l'aspetto più importante: non è un libro fine a se stesso, ma ha il grande pregio di insegnare e di spingere il lettore a scoprire e a conoscere, a sapere qualcosa di più sulla National Geographic ad esempio, ma anche a cercare di capire quanto di quello raccontato sia reale, quanto verosimile e quanto di pura fantasia. E ad aiutare i piccoli lettori ciò c'è un'interessante parte finale in cui si racconta la realtà dietro la finzione, con brevi cenni ad invenzioni e a studi accennati nel romanzo e che sono realmente in corso e ad "esploratori" del reale che stanno veramente lavorando per scoprire meglio il mondo e quello che contiene. Un buon punto di partenza, quindi, per non limitarsi alle 224 pagine ma scoprire qualcosa di più e diventare noi stessi degli esploratori.

Questo romanzo e la serie a cui dà inizio sono un perfetto paradigma di quello per cui la National Geographic è nata nel lontano 1888: contribuire a scoprire il mondo, certo, ma anche spingere e sollecitare le nuove generazioni a fare altrettanto e di più, a non limitarsi a quello che ci viene proposto ma andare oltre all'ovvio.
E' un ottima lettura per quei ragazzi curiosi di conoscere, per spingerli ad analizzare chi siamo attraverso il nostro passato e ad abbracciare culture diverse. Il tutto naturalmente con un'avventura che non si risparmia: realtà virtuale, invenzioni uniche, amici pronti a tutto pur di aiutarti e cattivi che si nascondono nell'ombra.

See raamat oli vaimustav ja põnev ning ma arvan, et nooremale lugejale meeldib see ka. 12-aastane Cruz on üks neist vähestest väljavalitutest, kes võetakse vastu Avastajate Akadeemiasse, kus nutikatest noortest tuleviku avastajaid tehakse. Nagu ühele seikluslikule raamatule kohane, on ka siin teoses üks suur pahalane, kes teatud põhjusel peategelase suhtes kurje plaane haub.

Mulle pahalane ei meeldinud, kohe üldse mitte, ning tema motiiv ka mitte, aga mis teha. Lastele ehk sobib selline lahendus väga hästi.

[Demeter Kate · Rating 4 out of 5]

Ich habe es nah einer geraumen Zeit erneut gelesen, da ich mir die restlichen Bände, die bisher leider nicht übersetzt wurden, in Englisch gekauft habe.

Insgesamt hat die Reihe nämlich 7 Bände und die ersten 4 können wir auch in Deutsch lesen.

Das Setting, dass Kinder und Jugendliche eine andere Art der Schule durchlaufen können, finde ich mega. Hier sind gerade neue Unterrichtsfächer wie Anthropologie, Umweltkunde, neue Technik etc mit dabei. Sie werden halt zu Entdeckern ausgebildet, die sich auch dem Schutz der Umwelt widmen.

Crus hat es geschafft: Er wurde an der renommierten Explorer Academy aufgenommen.
Und gleich direkt am ersten Tag geht es schon anders los, als er erwartet hat.

Mit dabei sind aus weiter Ferne seine beste Freundin Lani, und seine Gruppe "Cousteau" mit, Emmet, Sailor und Dugan. Ob der Freund oder Feind ist, weiß er noch nicht.

Wir haben aufgrund des Todes seiner Mutter, der wohl doch kein Unfall sein soll, noch eine gefährliche Suche nach der Wahrheit. Es müssen Codes entschlüsselt werden und geheimnisvolle Gegner stellen sich gegen Cruz.

.....

Mir hat der Auftakt richtig viel Spaß gemacht. Die Freundschaften sind toll und auch das alle aus unterschiedlichen Teilen der Erde stammen.
Aufgrund der verschlüsselten Codes und Hinweisen gibt es auch eine "Schatz"Jagd und ein Abenteuer jagt das nächste.

Am Ende des Buches gibt es noch Verweise auf richtige Wissenschaftler, die neuartige Ideen haben oder hatten, um unsere Umwelt noch besser zu verstehen und dahingehend zu beschützen.

Simple, fun and fast going read.

Explorers academys first story reminds me somewhat of Harry Potter. No it doesnt have the magic you can smell from the book and there are no wizards but there is a killed parent, interesting new school with tasks that remind me of mazes and the road to philosophers stone. At points it was annoyingly cliché but then again it was sweet and fun. All in all enjoyable read but nothing special.

[Alicia · Rating 5 out of 5]

Exciting and kind of scary. I was a little bothered by how much of the book the main character was hiding dangerous things from trusted adults and his dad but it turns out sharing the burden of difficult things with trusted, loving adults is rewarded in the end. My 9-yr old is reading the series. I will continue to read along as there are a couple of things I’m unsure about where the author will take things. The kids in the stories are 13yr olds and the audience is probably meant to be a bit more mature than 9 but it was still great for his age. It reminds me of Harry Potter without the witches and spells and using scientific inventions to help the outside world - encourages study and a love for school, the virtues of honor and character above academic and all other achievement, honesty and close loving relationships with parents, loyalty and kindness among friends and between kids and teachers. I am looking forward to reading more of the series!

#FirstLine ~ "Cruz!"

This book is so great for kids. It is a wild and action-packed adventure that kids (and parents) will love. I adore that The Nebula Secret is book one of seven to be released in this series brand new Explorer Academy Series. The book is based on real-life science, exploration and mission of the National Geographic Society. This is what sets Nat Geo apart from others. With the action packed adventure, code breaking and exploration this group of students will attend the Explorers Academy and get to really dive into a thrilling quest. All kids will be able to relate to the characters, will get immersed in the science and will love traveling the world. This series will be a hit and we cannot wait to continue on the adventures.

Great book for tweens! I bought this for my son a couple years ago and he loved it enough to put it in my To Read stack, which he doesn’t do very often. I finally worked my way to it and am glad I did. He developed an interest in 3D printing after reading this, but didn’t directly tell me the book is what sparked his interest. Now that I’ve read it, I put the pieces together and we’ve had some fun conversations about science and technology. Now, he’s getting a 3D printer for Christmas along with the fourth book in the series (he’s already read the other two). This isn’t great literature, but it’s a good adventure/mystery with plenty of exciting science that really appealed to my smart son. A great intro to science-y science fiction.

[Erin · Rating 2 out of 5]

Plausibility issues really killed the story for me. Someone tries to murder the main character, but he doesn’t tell anyone because they might not let him go to his awesome boarding school. Like, really?

And then at the end the protagonist blames his best friend for conspiring against him even though there’s a perfectly serviceable antagonist available. Seriously?

And most worrisome of all, the big-bad is a pharmaceutical company hiding a revolutionary medicine for profits. In a world where there are conspiracy-theorists who actually believe that sort of thing, this plot line seems irresponsible.

This book is AWESOME!!! I received an ARC and finished it in a few days. As I was reading this book everyone that saw me reading it wanted to read it after me. I would recommend this book for any age, girl or boy. The art in the book is sooo captivating and draws you right into the story. Trudi Trueit is a great author and I can’t wait to read the second book. I would recommend this book for anyone looking for a great, interesting read.

[Michael Davenport · Rating 2 out of 5]

2 stars: meh

I think the idea behind this book is good, trying to teach kids about science in this fictional story. At the end of the book the author goes over the actual science.

The story is boring. This is like taking the Harry, Ron, and Hermione trio and putting them in Enders game novel keeping it PG rated. Nothing is bad about that, but it's not an original/interesting plot.

The characters didn't develop in this book which makes it more boring.

Bên Phép thuật thì hẳn ai cũng đã nghe tới Học viện Phép thuật lừng danh Hogwarts, và ở bên lãnh vực thám hiểm khám phá thì ta đã có Học Viện Viễn Thám (Explorer Academy).

Đây chắc hẳn là một phiên bản viễn thám-và-ít nổi tiếng-hơn của Harry Potter. Cũng nói về một cậu trai, sẩy mẹ còn dì (và bố), đi tìm kiếm sự thật về mẹ và những gì mẹ để lại, chống lại cả một thế lực lớn tên Nebula đã hãm hại mẹ (cough, Voldermort, cough) và mẹ đã sử dụng trí tuệ và cả khoa học để lưu lại những lời gợi ý cho cậu chàng tìm những ‘kho báu’... Plot giống nhau là thế, ngay cả diễn biến tâm lý nhân vật cũng tương đối giống nhau, nhưng ở dạng đơn giản và lạc quan hơn. Phải chăng cả hai đều do nữ nhà văn viết nên vậy ta? Mọi thứ vẫn sẽ xoay quanh những nỗi lo của một cậu trai trẻ 12 13t dành cho gia đình, bạn bè, thầy cô và cả đam mê khao khát của bản thân nữa. Từ đó tình tiết truyện đôi lúc sẽ được đẩy lên cao trào, xen lẫn là những pha hành động tương đối kịch tính, đủ để mình đọc một lèo cuốn sách trong 3 ngày là xong. Kế đó phải tuyên dương phần vẽ minh hoạ cực đẹp với các hình minh hoạ có màu, giúp cho mình chắc chắn hơn với những hình dung tưởng tượng trong đầu.

Harry Potter có phép thuật để vượt nạn, phòng thân và học tập thì Cruz Coronado có khoa học và công nghệ để trợ giúp, như Cruz có con ong máy biết nhận diện và thao tác nhờ giọng nói của chủ, vòng tay đeo xác định được sức khoẻ, nhịp tim người đeo; công nghệ thực tế tăng cường ARC giúp mang lại trải nghiệm hư như thực thực như hư... Và đây cũng chính là điểm cuốn hút nhất khiến mình tìm tới bộ truyện. Những công nghệ này không phải là thứ hư cấu do tác giả chế ra mà nó được truyền cảm hứng từ những công trình, thành tựu khoa học có thật được sáng chế ra để phục vụ cho chính những viễn thám gia ngoài đời thực luôn (ở cuối sách sẽ có những thông tin đó).

Dĩ nhiên, truyện về thám hiểm thì chắc chắn không thể không cung cấp những kiến thức về địa lý, lịch sử, bảo tồn...rồi. Tuy nhiên, cũng không thể mong chờ là cuốn sách sẽ đào sâu vào bất kỳ kiến thức chuyên môn nào vì đây cũng chỉ đơn thuần là tiểu thuyết khoa học viễn tưởng cho thanh thiếu niên (đâu phải sách khoa học) nên những kiến thức được cung cấp cũng chỉ ở dạng thông tin giới thiệu, thuyết minh ngắn gọn giúp cho các tình tiết trong truyện gần thực tế hơn thôi nhé !

Túm quần, truyện phù hợp với các thanh niên ở độ tuổi cấp 2 cấp 3 đam mê đi phượt, khám phá thế giới rộng lớn bao la và thích thú với những thứ đồ công nghệ Của tương lai. Rất thú vị!

Вже давно помічаю, що найбільше мені подобаються книги, де є якийсь навчальний заклад. Академії, школи, університети. Тоді і персонажі, і всі події стають мені ближчими.
⠀
Тому гадаю було б дивно, якби книга "Академія дослідників" мені не сподобалася. На щастя все вийшло зовсім інакше.
⠀
Головний герой цієї книги - це Крус Коронадо. Він з Гаваї, в це райське місце Крус переїхав з татом після смерті мами. Варто додати, що його мама Петра також навчалася в Академії, а померла через таємні обставини в які скоріш за все вплуталася таємна компанія Туманність.
⠀
От тільки тепер, коли Круса прийняли до Академії у нього виникає одразу кілька проблем.
⠀
По-перше через те, що в цій Академії працює його тітка деякі однокласники гадають, що Крусові все буде сходити з рук і взагалі, що він потрапив сюди тільки завдяки зв'язкам. Тому нашому головному героєві потрібно буде доводити власну значущість.
⠀
По-друге мама Круса розробила дивну сироватку, і Крусові потрібно зробити так, аби ця таємнича робота не потрапила до поганих рук.
⠀
А гадаю третьою проблемою Круса є просто вижити, тому що тепер не тільки його життя, а і життя його друзів під небезпекою через таємних злочинців, що хочуть прибрати його зі своєї дороги. Тут потрібно бути обачним)
⠀
В той час, як Крус намагається вирішити всі ці проблеми він ще й навчається в Академії і скажу вам це найзахопливіше! Адже такої Академії в книгах я ще не бачила.
⠀
Академія дослідників не просто так названа. Тут тямущих підлітків навчають всьому, що може знадобитися справжньому досліднику - біології, океанографії, основам виживання, археології, криптології, журналістика. Словом різні науки, що так чи інакше пов'язані з природою.
⠀
І звісно ж хочу відмітити окремо ілюстрації! Для мене було справжнім відпочинком для очей спостерігати та роздивлятися ці чудові доповнення.

Eine lebhaft erzählte Abenteuergeschichte voller Geheimniskrämerei und Entdeckergeist!

Cruz will an der Explorer Academy alles über Forschungsexpeditionen und Wissenschaft lernen - und herausfinden, woran seine Mutter gearbeitet hat als sie bei einem Laborunglück ums Leben kam. Schnell stellt sich heraus, dass dabei einiges vertuscht worden ist und jemand namens Nebula es jetzt auch auf ihn abgesehen haben könnte...

Spannende Charaktere, gute Freunde und Teamgeist genauso wie harte Konkurrenz und rücksichtsloser Ehrgeiz, sowie interessante Unterrichtsfächer und computersimulierte Urwaldmissionen runden das Ganze ab.

Super zu lesen und dabei auch noch richtig toll - und sogar farbig! - illustriert. Absolute Empfehlung für alle Abenteurer ab 10!

Ik heb dit boek voorgelezen als onderdeel van onze leesmethode. Ondanks dat ik het boek niet eerst zelf gelezen heb (moest van de klas😂), was dit echt een leuk voorleesboek. We zaten helemaal in het verhaal. Zelfs de leerlingen die normaal aangeven dat ze het saai vinden om te worden voorgelezen waren enthousiast.
Dit boek trekt je gelijk vanaf hoofdstuk 1 het verhaal in waardoor je wil blijven lezen. Ook kun je tussen de hoofdstukken door goed fantaseren over het verloop van het verhaal. Veel hoofdstukken eindigen met een cliffhanger waardoor je altijd op een spannend punt stopt.
De klas en ik vinden dit boek een dikke aanrader.
(ook om zelf te lezen want dan kun je beter genieten van de mooie illustraties die dit boek heeft).
