Tulle vil ha’ luksus
Tulle har lyst til, at lørdagen bliver lidt mere luksus. Hun vil også gerne vinde en konkurrence og have vingummiwellness Tulle ønsker sig en rigtig luksusdag, men det er ikke nemt at have luksusdrømme, når far ikke rigtig har råd til så meget. Heldigvis er han fuld af fantasi, og med lidt hjælp kan han få luksus ud af meget lidt … Nanna Gouls søde og humoristiske historie om Tulle og far er illustreret med flotte og farverige tegninger af Karla Nor Holmbäck. En aldeles herlig billedbog, hvor stemningen er lidt fandenivoldsk, men på en meget sød og hyggelig måde. Især brugen af bandeord er forfriskende og understreger de rigtige pointer. Bogen giver dermed gode muligheder for at tale om begreber og sproget vi bruger - eller ikke så gerne må bruge. Der er også en dejlig og rar stemning over illustrationerne, som giver farve på den hverdag, som tydeligvis blev for kedelig for Tulle. Hvis man ikke synes bandeord er sjove, skal man blot styre udenom og læse bogen alligevel, de kan sagtens
