Mr Filkins in the Desert
Description
Description
Crossing the desert to visit his family, armed only with a picnic, a walking stick and an umbrella, 90-year-old Mr Filkins faces (and hides from) many remarkable dangers. Luckily, he has in his backpack something quite ordinary that turns out to have extraordinary powers. With this beautiful new story, celebrated author and illustrator Quentin Blake shows us, with the wisdom born of a lifetime observing human and other creatures, that small acts of kindness are the stuff of life.
