There is a huge pile of old stuff in the garden.
“Rubbish,” says mom.
“Get rid of it,” Dad growls.
But Jop, grandpa's carnival doll, doesn't want to be thrown away.
“I have an idea,” Fee whispers.
What does Fee plan to do with all those boxes and beams?
Why don't mom and dad understand what she wants?
And how is it possible that she suddenly lost Jop?
'Fairy and the Junk' is a cheerful book about old junk,
about carnival, and about everything that is possible, even if
you didn't think so.
Lenneke Westera | Judith Zijtregtop:
Lenneke lives in two worlds: the world she experiences with her senses, and the world she experiences by stretching her senses. She can make whatever she wants happen. She mixes countries with scents, sadness with happiness, people with turtles, trees and dreams. This is how her stories are created.
Judith is very good at delving into the underlying wishes of the author and the story. With great ease she conjures up illustrations with her brushes that always connect with a word or sentence.
