										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It has been a whilrlwind year for El Gecko Publishing, with the printing of two new books, as well as various other reprints and new products being launched &#8211; and we&#8217;re not finished yet!</p><p>Keeping the hamster wheel spinning at a crazy speed, we have just gone to print with our first illustrated children&#8217;s book, <strong>Santa&#8217;s New Helpers</strong>. This is book 1 in Max Hoppe and Theresa Hardman&#8217;s new <em><a href="https://elgeckopublishing.co.za/store2/product-category/tales-from-the-waterhole-series/">Tales from the Waterhole</a></em><a href="https://elgeckopublishing.co.za/store2/product-category/tales-from-the-waterhole-series/"> </a>series, which we will be rolling out in future. We are particularly thrilled that it will be coming out in 3 languages, namely English, isiXhosa and Afrikaans. This makes it a wonderful tool for helping kids to learn other official languages, as they can compare pages and understand what is being said in each language.</p><p>Next time, I&#8217;ll introduce our <a href="https://elgeckopublishing.co.za/store2/meet-the-team/">growing team</a>, who have made all this growth possible.</p><div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" width="640" height="640" src="https://elgeckopublishing.co.za/store2/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/santa_afrikaans_cover_640x640.jpg" alt="Kersvader se nuwe helpers" class="wp-image-195" srcset="https://elgeckopublishing.co.za/store/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/santa_afrikaans_cover_640x640.jpg 640w, https://elgeckopublishing.co.za/store/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/santa_afrikaans_cover_640x640-150x150.jpg 150w, https://elgeckopublishing.co.za/store/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/santa_afrikaans_cover_640x640-300x300.jpg 300w, https://elgeckopublishing.co.za/store/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/santa_afrikaans_cover_640x640-600x600.jpg 600w, https://elgeckopublishing.co.za/store/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/santa_afrikaans_cover_640x640-100x100.jpg 100w" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px" /><figcaption>The cover from the Afrikaans edition</figcaption></figure></div><div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter"><img decoding="async" width="640" height="640" src="https://elgeckopublishing.co.za/store2/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/santa_eng_back_-cover_640x640.jpg" alt="Santa's New Helpers Back Cover" class="wp-image-196" srcset="https://elgeckopublishing.co.za/store/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/santa_eng_back_-cover_640x640.jpg 640w, https://elgeckopublishing.co.za/store/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/santa_eng_back_-cover_640x640-150x150.jpg 150w, https://elgeckopublishing.co.za/store/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/santa_eng_back_-cover_640x640-300x300.jpg 300w, https://elgeckopublishing.co.za/store/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/santa_eng_back_-cover_640x640-600x600.jpg 600w, https://elgeckopublishing.co.za/store/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/santa_eng_back_-cover_640x640-100x100.jpg 100w" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px" /><figcaption>Back cover of the English edition</figcaption></figure></div><div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter"><img decoding="async" width="640" height="640" src="https://elgeckopublishing.co.za/store2/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/santa_p7_xho_640x640.jpg" alt="isiXhosa children's story" class="wp-image-217" srcset="https://elgeckopublishing.co.za/store/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/santa_p7_xho_640x640.jpg 640w, https://elgeckopublishing.co.za/store/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/santa_p7_xho_640x640-150x150.jpg 150w, https://elgeckopublishing.co.za/store/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/santa_p7_xho_640x640-300x300.jpg 300w, https://elgeckopublishing.co.za/store/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/santa_p7_xho_640x640-600x600.jpg 600w, https://elgeckopublishing.co.za/store/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/santa_p7_xho_640x640-100x100.jpg 100w" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px" /><figcaption>A page from the isiXhosa edition</figcaption></figure></div><div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter"><img decoding="async" width="640" height="640" src="https://elgeckopublishing.co.za/store2/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/santa_p34_eng_640x640.jpg" alt="Santa's new helpers the warthogs" class="wp-image-200" srcset="https://elgeckopublishing.co.za/store/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/santa_p34_eng_640x640.jpg 640w, https://elgeckopublishing.co.za/store/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/santa_p34_eng_640x640-150x150.jpg 150w, https://elgeckopublishing.co.za/store/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/santa_p34_eng_640x640-300x300.jpg 300w, https://elgeckopublishing.co.za/store/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/santa_p34_eng_640x640-600x600.jpg 600w, https://elgeckopublishing.co.za/store/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/santa_p34_eng_640x640-100x100.jpg 100w" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px" /><figcaption>A page from the English version of Santa&#8217;s New Helpers</figcaption></figure></div>]]></content:encoded>
