Na de bestsellers "Peper & zout" en "Zeep & soda" is "Weer & wind" het derde boek om de lachspieren te oefenen. Klagen over het weer is volstrekt zinloos.

Zij nemen de boodschap van de bijbel serieus, maar kunnen zo nu en dan hartelijk om zichzelf en om medegelovigen lachen. Wanneer je bestand bent tegen een beetje tegenwind, dan vind je in dit boek een aantal prikkelende uitspraken, cartoons en gedachten.

Penguins aren't the only animal out there with problems, oh no… Praise for Penguin Problems : "A small philosophy manual for readers of all ages ... wonderfully original" Observer From Jory John and Lane Smith, the winner of the 2017 Kate Greenaway Medal, comes a laugh-out-loud companion to the acclaimed Penguin Problems. Edward the giraffe can't understand why his neck is as long and bendy and ridiculous as it is. No other animal has a neck this absurd. He's tried disguising it, dressing it up, strategically hiding it behind bushes ... anything he can think of. But just when he's exhausted his neck-hiding options, a turtle ambles in and tries to help him understand that his neck has a purpose ... and looks excellent in a bow tie.
