A small girl listens to
her older sister
complaining about her
bottom. Surely it has not
grown since last summer?
Look! She can't even fit
into her swimsuit. But
the small girl thinks her
sister's bottom looks
lovely, and asks her to
consider the following:
noses, mouths, ears and
eyes are all shapes and
sizes - and so are
bottoms. Big bottoms are
useful for crash landings
and, if you are a queen,
keeping you comfy while
sitting on your throne
for long periods. If you
are a princess, however,
a small bottom can be a
boon for detecting peas
under the mattress, but
on the other hand, not
so good for riding
horses... Once again
Nicholas Allan combines
laugh-out-loud humour
with real insight and
warmth that cannot fail
to raise a smile.
