Julia and Simca are two young friends who agree that you can never use too much butter - and that it is best to be a child forever. Sharing a love of cooking and having no wish to turn into big, busy people who worry too much and dawdle too little, they decide to create a feast for growing and staying young. A playful, scrumptious celebration of the joy of eating and never completely growing up, this picturebook is a fictional tale loosely inspired by the life of Julia Child - a story that should be taken with a grain of salt and a generous pat of butter.
