An interactive and hilarious book that teaches you the difference between left and right
Did you know that 42% of the adults have trouble in knowing where left and right is? Just like seagull Simon!

It’s season of migration... but Simon has trouble with differentiating left and right and loses his companions. In his search for his friends, he comes across many animals that will help him find his way back in a peculiar manner: ‘turn two pages to the right and you’ll find the whale, maybe he knows where your friends are’. Including a trip from Paris to Australia and many funny interactions, clumsy Simon learns what left and right is while staying completely true to himself.

A character you’ll 100% fall in love with!

Bird is dead. Yesterday he was alive. Some of the other birds cry a little. And that’s alright. Crying together can be nice. Then it’s time to give Bird a funeral. All of Bird’s friends and even some of the birds who didn’t like him that much are helping. They dig a grave. They speak lovely words. They sing a song. They miss him a lot, and cry some more. And after? Tea and worms. Or cake, if you don’t like worms.
