Es muss mehr dahinterstecken: eine ganz ausgefuchste, augenzwinkernde Lebensweisheit, die unser vertrautes Weltbild, nicht ohne hintergründige Absicht, auf die drolligste Weise durcheinanderpurzeln lässt.

Kriemhild weint um Siegfrieds Tod. Der grimmige Hagen und ihr Bruder Gunther haben Siegfried ermordet. Erst nach langer Zeit gelingt es ihren jüngsten Bruder Giselher, Kriemhild wieder zu versöhnen. Als sie jedoch aus dem reichen Schatz der Nibelungen viel Gold unter dem Volk verteilt, fürchtet Hagen, sie könnte zu viel Einfluss gewinnen. Er raubt den Schatz und versenkt ihn irgendwo im Rhein. Als spätere Hunnen-Königin rächt sich Kriemhild bitter an den Nibelungen.

Grandpa Zombie

Alex se oupa het grys hare, dra valstande en kyk graag na reis-programme op TV. Maar op ’n dag raak hy skielik mal oor … BREIIINNNSSS! Dit is duidelik dat Oupa besig is om in ’n zombie te verander. As Alex hom van dr. Zuurman en die zombiepolisie wil red, gaan hy ’n paar briljante planne, goeie vriende en hope broccoli nodig hê. En miskien kan hulle op die koop toe ook hulle droom bewaarheid om die Victoriawatervalle en Egipte te siene kry! Met Jacobs se sonderlinge kombinasie van humor en die deernisvolle uitbeelding van gesins- en ander verhoudinge, is dit nie moeilik om te verstaan waarom hy die topverkoper-kinderboekskrywer in Suid-Afrika is nie.
