Lisettes Green Sock ... delightfully droll. Her characters may have feathers,a tail and a trunk,but they sound and act like children we know. There is a fable-like quality to the story — though,unlike Aesop,Valckx turns the moral on its head.
In this delightful tale of imaginative play with friends, Lisette's creativity and quick thinking create a wonderful day out. Gently exploring the differences between storytelling and little white lies and the importance of good intentions, this picture book is perfect for reading aloud with preschoolers. With illustrations that convey a range of mood and emotion, the animal friends are brimming with personality and childlike playfulness.
Catharina Valckx was born in the Netherlands and grew up in France with four sisters. She traveled back and forth between the two countries before settling down in Amsterdam. She started writing books for children after the birth of her son. Her books are like guides for a happy life.
Valckx has a writing style that seems to revel in obliqueness and gentle surrealism.
