[sweetmommy123]

Hello parents, does anyone saw the shop sell electricity tracks next to the book fair at Hougang? I passed by for the book fair but the store is no longer there

Hquek, just a quick check, is the title of the book you mentioned \"Surviving Crisis\" or you are referring to titles like \"Survival during a Earthquake\" or \"Survival during Climate Change\"? Was at Popular last night and enquired staff, but can't find \"Surviving Crisis\". Thanks.

Not sure who the author is, but the spine is red in colour. It could be this http://www.gempakstarz.com/products_novel_details.php?id=618 (title \"Escaping crisis\").

and here's the intro
Don't let trouble trouble you!

Forbidden jungles and endless deserts are problems we rarely face- but what about angry dogs, being trapped in lifts, and even earthquakes? We could face these problems any day, so what do you do? Muchi, Flora and Big Billy are three kids who will show you just what to do in such situations (with help from their kid-at-heart friend, the Magician)!

Problems? No problem!

Learn how to keep your cool in any situation, and how to put things right when everything's going wrong! No matter what might happen, this book will help you prepare for the worst! So come along with your new friends and learn the ins and outs of ESCAPING CRISIS!

actually, there are a LOT of books and type in the series. here's the link to the publisher's website (it's a malaysian company). http://www.gempakstarz.com/products_novel.php

Thanks, Hquek. This site is with so many comics! Now, looks like it is much cheaper in Malaysia . So, maybe can get from there :evil:

Definitely. I posted before la. Popular Malaysia selling these at rm9.50 to 10.50. With popular card got discount. Btw, popular at pelangi is having sale now. I got some titles at like 30% off at a previous sale (not sure if they still stock this during current sale).


I think it is from 1 to 8 or 10 June.

Hquek, Pop card valid for use in Malaysia!!! :rahrah: I have someone probably going KL in next 2 weeks and can maybe buy the books for me I saw Pop M'sia having sales of 20% for members for selected titles.
Btw, is Pop at JB City Sq worth visiting? Thinking of dropping by one day during the sch hols.

Good saving compare with purchase in Singapore!

Think without the 20% voucher we have to pay about $8.55 per book! :moneyflies:

Small quantity of titles. Best is aeon tebrau (just keep driving northward, there is a tesco next to the complex). In the complex, there is toys r us, nandos and aeon (supermarket). The Harriss there has the biggest selection and it is pretty big for other books. Popular at pelangi Plaza/mall is about the middle in terms of number of titles, but the shop is a bit hard to find. I do geta bit worried going there becos of high crime rate, just be careful should be ok.
