Join the Triple C, the Children's Childish Club, and be as childish as
you like! Julia's bad day takes a turn in this delightful debut picture
book that shows the joy that can come from simply being a child.
Julia has had a terrible day and her uncle is trying to cheer her up
after school. He does this by introducing her to the Triple C, the
Childish Children's Club. The Club encourages people to slow down and
enjoy certain things that are easy to neglect. Like walking at your own
pace even if everybody else is rushing past, smiling at strangers,
jumping in puddles, collecting conkers, and, especially, asking 'Are we
there yet?' as many times as you like. Or simply by imagining silly or
preposterous or lovely things.
Staffan Gnosspelius's delightful, sometimes hilarious, and utterly
unique illustrations are full of emotion and the perfect complement to
this story of making a bad day better. Julia and the Triple C will
inspire young readers in simple and unexpected ways.
