Book 2 in The Little Optimist Series:
A sea monster is in the lagoon. But how can that be? The Little Optimist and friends go in search of this monster and find a very different type of PLASTIC sea monster, caused by humans. So the Little Optimist sets off around the world to get the children to help him protect mother earth. It's an optimistic adventure with fun learnings and lots of heart.
In April 2016, Greg Bertish sailed a children's Optimist dinghy around the Cape of Storms. He crossed False Bay, rounded Cape Point and headed for the beautiful Langebaan lagoon on the wild West Coast.
His 200-kilometre journey matched the 200 days he had spent in hospital fighting life-threatening heart infections.
He raised ZAR 300 000 towards the new ICU at Red Cross War Memorial Children's Hospital, and later went on to raise a further 1 million ZAR to paint and renovate the hospital.
Greg hopes this journey of a REAL Little Optimist and book about a little believer with a HUGE heart will help to teach kids that being small, sick, poor or different is OK. They too can go on to survive and thrive. This story will inspire kids to believe in themselves, get better, be better and follow their passions and dreams.
