Kids tell it like it is. And they know some very useful stuff indeed. Such as the fact that you can′t hide a piece of broccoli in a glass of milk. Or it′s never a good idea to try to baptise a cat. You just can′t argue with these things.
Our children are bursting to share commonsense advice that will help us grown-ups get through the day with a smile on our faces. Smart, warm, telling and funny. THE WORLD ACCORDING TO KIDS captures a beautiful sense of the world seen from knee height.
Some of the contributors to this book have just learned to talk, others have been at it for a decade or so, but they all have something to say that will brighten your day. The sayings here will make you smile - and laugh out loud. Along with plenty of laughs there are grains of true wisdom about friendship and caring, pain and joy.
These quotes have been submitted by parents worldwide - because the wisdom of children is universal.
