Synopsis

A beautiful edition of William Trevor's only book for children. Where would you find talking snails, fighting queens, Welsh witches and winter sunflowers? In stories, of course, and that's why Juliet loves them. On a holiday in France, Juliet hears lots of stories -- from her grandmother and from the toymaker who sells wind-up animals on the quayside. Juliet wants to be a storyteller too, and when she embarks on a mission to rescue the little trout in the restaurant fish tank, she begins an adventure which turns into her very own story.
