A brilliantly funny collaboration between superstar creators, Quentin Blake and Emma Chichester Clark, about a tiny girl with superhuman strength.

Liliana wears her super power lightly, using it to help others in a crisis. A resilient child, she thinks nothing of single-handedly rescuing a highland cow stuck in the mud, or of stopping an out-of-control steamroller in its tracks, or of throwing a beached whale back out to sea.

Written by Quentin Blake and with beautiful, detailed, humorous illustrations by the award-winning Emma Chichester Clark, Liliana the Strong is the perfect gift for any child who needs a little reminder that everything will be okay.
