What is Liliana the Strong about?

Liliana may be tiny, but she is astonishingly strong. Whenever someone needs help, she is ready to leap into action. She pulls a Highland cow from the mud, halts a runaway steamroller and sends a stranded whale safely back into the sea. Liliana never boasts about her amazing strength; she simply uses it to make things better. With warmth, humour and lively illustrations, this cheerful picture book celebrates courage, kindness and the surprising ways children can be strong.
