Description

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.

Author Biography

Staffan Gnosspelius was born and raised in Sweden, but now lives and works in London where he likes to ride around on a bicycle. He studied at Edinburgh College of Art and at Chelsea College of Art and Design. Staffan says, "Drawing is at the core of what I do. I draw for pleasure. I doodle when I don't know what to draw. I draw when things are hard. Then the act of drawing is like a release valve to take the pressure off. Drawing and creating artwork is a way for me to digest the world around me and the world inside me." When he's not drawing or riding his bicycle, he also like to grow and cook and eat food.
