Olly Millimetre and Mega Mouth

Barbara Raes, illustrations Kristof Devos

Wonderful stories with short tasks and rituals

by Barbara Raes

For children who lack confidence and others who overflow with selfconfidence

The perfect gift for pivotal childhood moments

This is Olly Millimetre. She is about one millimetre tall and one millimetre wide. And while she is able to see the whole world, very few have ever seen her.

This is Mega Mouth. Mega Mouth is way too big for this book. In fact, he has grown too big for this book. Olly Millimetre would really like to look into Mega Mouth’s great eyes. So she comes up with a plan.

Read Olly Millimetre’s stories who would like to grow, or turn the book around and first get to know Mega Mouth, who grew uncontrollably because of great sadness.

A layered book full of stories about friendship, saying goodbye and growing up.
