Description

"We've been to the theatre to see the Sugar Lump Fairy." "Mum's car broke down and she had to call the IRA to fix it." "Grandma, I'll be glad when I'm old and have hairs on my face." "I'm not talking too quickly - it's you who are listening too slowly." Children are delightful and appealing 'little treasures', but because they are also innately honest and direct, they can also make you smile or cringe with embarrassment with the things they say or ask. "Little Treasures" is bestselling author Gervase Phinn's third collection of children's favorite sayings, amusing remarks or impossible-to-answer questions.

Author Biography:

Gervase Phinn leads a very full and busy life: he is a teacher, freelance lecturer, author, poet, school inspector and educational consultant. For fourteen years he taught in a range of schools in Yorkshire until, in 1984, he became general adviser for language development in Rotherham. Four years later he moved to North Yorkshire where he spent ten years as a school inspector, which has provided much of the material for his three bestselling Dales books and his four collections of children's poetry. He was subsequently appointed principal adviser for the county. He now teaches, lectures and directs courses throughout the country and abroad, and is in constant demand both as a speaker at social after-dinner events and at educational conferences. Gervase Phinn is a fellow of the Royal Society of Arts, the visiting professor of education at the University of Teesside and an honorary fellow of St Johns College, York. He is married with four grown-up children.
