Metz And Bop And The Big Library Theft

Description

Metz and Bop and the Big Library Theft is the first title in a series by Meetse a Bophelo – The Water of Life, a socially driven imprint of BK Publishing. This is an invaluable book which aims to foster a love for books and reading. It’s a collection of short stories, comics and a poem by fun-loving South African authors. It is written in a style and on a language level which is appropriate for second language readers and is beautifully illustrated to help with the transition from picture books to more text-heavy books. Each story is 100% original and uniquely South African. The series introduces a whole bunch of new characters. The hero and mascot, Metz, is a young detective boy. The only thing he loves more than a good mystery is the wealth of stories he picks up during his adventures. He takes the readers along with him as he reads stories or hears them from other people. Metz is a character that children will trust. He is the same age as the readers and he talks in their slang, but most importantly, he makes reading fun.
