D

arwishi Ur-Atum Msamaki Minkabh Yahya, the son of an Egyptian pharaoh, is only nine years old when he dies. He is mummified and laid to rest in a tomb, with the powerful Golden Scarab of Muktagara hanging around his neck. Thousands of years later, during a transport of three precious sarcophaguses, there is a terrible storm. Lightning strikes, the lorry plunges from a flyover and the sarcophaguses are hurled through the air. During all this, a little white shape escapes the wreckage unnoticed…

Goos Guts is ten and has an absolutely normal life. Then one night a little mummy appears out of nowhere in his room! Goos’ father decides to let him stay and be part of their family, but in secret to protect the mummy from scientific experiments. Life changes completely. Goos and Dummy (short for his real name) become best friends. A few weeks later Dummy goes with him to school, pretending to be a badly burned Egyptian boy. But not everybody is happy with this creepy stranger in their midst.

One dreadful day, Dummy’s golden scarab goes missing. Without the scarab Dummy falls terribly ill. Goos must now do everything he can to find the powerful scarab, so that Dummy doesn’t have to face death a second time around. Who could have stolen the scarab? And can Dummy be saved in time?

Superjuffie! | Super Miss!

Text by Janneke Schotveld, illustrations by Annet Schaap

T

hough Miss Josie looks like any ordinary teacher, she has a remarkable talent. Whenever an animal is in danger, she turns into a super hero.

The minute she takes a bite of a piece of chalk, her powers come into play: she flies through the air as a green tornado and rescues animals in need.

Miss Josie tries to conceal her true identity from the kids in her class, but she does not manage for long. Luckily, they promise not to reveal her secret to the strict headmaster. Because naturally it is unacceptable: a teacher who flies away in the middle of a spelling lesson. Together they think up all kinds of reasons for why Miss Josie is late again and again – and then with twigs in her hair or a baby duck in her pocket.

Meanwhile, weird things are going on in the city zoo.

Will Super Miss and the children be able to save the zoo from disaster?

He wants to replace a 200-year-old oak with “New Nature�. The mayor is beaming with pride about this technological advance: New Nature is completely computer driven! And though it is an imitation that can hardly be distinguished from the real thing, Super Miss soon discovers it is toxic. She has her hands full saving animals that have accidentally eaten some of it. The mayor refuses to admit New Nature is bad and Super Miss does not have any solid proof.

To his relief, he finds a backpack containing a mobile phone. As he is about to dial the emergency number, he notices he has voicemail. To his astonishment, he hears: Whatever happens, do not contact the police!

At that instant, he knows one thing for sure: it is his own voice. He has left this message himself!

Using the items he finds in the backpack to point him in the right direction, he determinedly goes in search of his past. But until he can remember something, he does not dare trust anyone- not even Lara. Slowly but surely, he uncovers a terrible truth‌
