Clubs



Lolly Leopold is searching for a Club that she can truly belong to. Almost everyone is in a club but it seems that Lolly always gets left out until she discovers her own natural group of friends and they start a very unique club. This funny and original picture book is an interesting mix of text and illustration, which combine to portray a colourful and realistic record of school life. All children will be able to relate to the common childhood experience of forming groups of friends, and of being left out. The book is a useful as a starting point for discussion on a number of topics and great to read aloud.
