The Remarkables, The Most Incredible Children I’ve Met So Far! by Clotilde Perrin

 

Meet 38 extraordinary children: an electric child, a flying child, elastic, invisible, miniature, a child made of cake. Each child describes their characteristics, tells anecdotes, and presents the special powers that make them unique. A “class photo” brings everyone together with a quiz finale for readers to discover their own superpowers.

The Remarkables is a big book of fantasy and humour that entertains and provides a way to talk about emotions and identity. Through Clotilde Perrin’s unique imagination, this inclusive encyclopaedia celebrates individuality, strengths and differences, allowing every reader to explore what miraculous superpower they would wish for—or might have.

Known for her original lift-the-flap explorations of fairytale stories, Perrin here turns the lens onto her child readers, showing each one that they are a superhero.

Gecko Press publishes amazing books and The Remarkables is a book like no other. each page is packed with interesting and mind blowing concepts, designed to explore thoughts and places beyond every day life. I love it!
