In a minute - Tony Bradman

"We'll never get to the playground," said Jo.

"Yes we will," said Dad. "We'll be there in a minute."

Jo is eager to get to the playground in the park, to play with her friend Sita and Patch the dog.

But Mum and Dad take so long - getting ready, stopping to talk to friends and getting distracted by speeches and processions - she thinks they'll never get there.

When they finally arrive at the playground they are in for a terrible disappointment. . .

Until Patch the dog makes a fantastic discovery.



A charming follow-up to the classic multicultural picture book, Through my Window. The third book in this series featuring Jo, a little girl from a mixed race family, is Wait and See. With sweet, cheerful illustrations and simple text, this book is suitable for the youngest child.

By a popular and respected author/illustrator team. Tony Bradman is a highly regarded author and anthology editor, and Eileen Browne is the author of the acclaimed Handa's Surprise.
