Ten spyte van ons boeke krisis in 2020 het ons knaap 147 boeke (76 Afrikaans en 71 Engels) gelees. Genadiglik het hy die Tom Swift reeks ontdek wat gratis eboeke is, want sonder die weet ek nie hoe ons deur die grendelstaat sou kom nie.
Die reeks was dan ook sy gunsteling boeke in Engels die jaar. Hy het 26 boeke uit die reeks gelees en het nog ‘n paar oor. Hy verkies egter nog regte boeke, so het eers die e-boeke weg gepak, toe ons weer boeke kon begin uitneem by die biblioteek. Hy het ook ‘n resensie oor die reeks geskryf.
Sy gunsteling Afrikaanse boeke vir 2020 was Taman van die oerwoud deur WS Sutherland, 20,000 myl onder die see deur Jules Verne en Simon van Garderen se boeke, Christo de Lange – Leerling Vlieenier en Christo de Lange – Vegvlieenier.
