Little Angels

Have you ever thought that, when I’m twenty-one, you’ll be dead?
Granddad, we’ve been asked to take something very old to school tomorrow - will you come in with me?
Grandma, who’ll get the fish and chips when you’ve gone to Heaven?
My daddy says my granny is well past her sell-by date.
Mummy, what was Captain Hook called before the crocodile off bit his hand? You know the situation - you either want to curl up in a ball and hide as your child or grandchild says something extremely embarrassing, or you join in the laughter at the little un’s expense. Little children are innately curious, open, innocent, spontaneous and honest - sometimes, it has to be said, they are a little too honest. So who better to share their innermost feelings than bestselling author and school inspector Gervase Phinn? In this follow-up to his book Little Gems , Gervase once again spills the beans on all the amusing things children say or ask.
