"A visual delight, very clever!"

Four different voices, four different experiences, of a trip to the park. Very simple, yet very complex. There are many layers of discovery! A joy to read. Delia

Description

Highly original story about children overcoming adult snobbery, told in four voices and illustrated by Browne's unique, surreal artwork. Four different voices tell their own versions of the same walk in the park. The radically different perspectives give a fascinating depth to this simple story which explores many of the author's key themes, such as alienation, friendship and the bizarre amid the mundane. Anthony Browne's world-renowned artwork is full of expressive gorillas, vibrant colours and numerous nods to Magritte and other artists, while being uniquely Browne's own style.
