Granny Adele lives a quiet, retiring life in her house on the
coast. She keeps her home tidy and in the evening knits the
grey socks she sells at market. But one day down on the beach
she finds a little monkey called Puck and takes him home with
her. Puck has some pretty extraordinary ideas when it comes
to tidiness. Suddenly nothing in Adele’s life is as it used to be.
But is that really such a bad thing?
Successful illustrator Imke Sönnichsen has written and drawn
an affectionate story full of mischievous humour to delight
any child and also entertain the adults reading it.
