Klerksdorp Rekord, Stilfontein - ‘n Passie vir kinders, die Afrikaanse taal en die natuur het ‘n Stilfonteinse skrywer geïnspireer om ‘n kinderboek te skryf.
‘Deurmekaarbos se Sonstraaltjie’ het kleintyd-drome van Deserise Cocklin-Viljoen bewaarheid. 

Sy onthou hoe sy as klein dogtertjie al ‘n liefde vir lees ontwikkel het, en nou met haar eerste kinderboek wil sy ook kinders aanmoedig om te lees en nuwe Afrikaanse woorde te leer.

Klerksdorp Record, Klerksdorp - Die geld wat die afgelope tien maande vir Petro van Zyl met skarebefondsing ingesamel word, is broodnodig om ‘n dak oor haar kop te verseker.

Petro se dogter, Altea van Zyl, het verlede jaar ‘n profiel op Back-a-Buddy oopgemaak om fondse te genereer om vir haar ma se verblyf in die Justice Otto sorgoord op Stilfontein te betaal. Dit is nadat haar ma se lewensmaat, Jannie du Rand, skielik oorlede is en sy sonder ‘n heenkome en met ‘n erge skuldlas agtergelaat is. Dit was al uitweg vir die familie nadat Petro ook met Huntingtons se siekte gediagnoseer is wat beteken het dat sy versorging nodig het. Dit is ‘n seldsame genetiese afwyking wat onbeheerde beweging, kognitiewe inkorting en emosionele probleme veroorsaak.
