Book Description

Julian is a quick fibber and a wishful thinker. And he is great at telling stories. He can make people—especially his younger brother, Huey—believe just about anything. Like the story about the cats that come in the mail. Or the fig leaves that make you grow tall if you eat them off the tree. But some stories can lead to a heap of trouble, and that's exactly where Julian and Huey end up!


From the Trade Paperback edition.

Julian's stories are magnificent, but they aren't always the truth, and they cause him some trouble. Ages 5-9.
Copyright 1987 Reed Business Information, Inc.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book. I read it over and over again July 16, 1998

Format:Paperback
After reading the first story about the father and the lemon pudding, i just had to try some lemon pudding and now it is my favorite. All the stories are great and very interesting. I liked how Julian had such a creative imagination. I'm 11 years old and I still love to read it.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is one to read aloud, again and again. January 20, 1997
By A Customer
Format:Library Binding
One of my all-time favorite read-aloud books, with lively,
expressive illustrations. This book and its sequel -
More Stories Julian Tells - describes the trials and
tribulations of our hero, the ever-inventive Julian.
The author, Ann Cameron, lovingly shows how Julian's
curiosity and voracious desire to learn get him in and
out of all kinds of scrapes. For example, the unforgettable
story of how Julian convinces his little brother, Huey, to
taste a pudding made for their mother. Taste they do, that
fabled pudding, which according to both mom and dad, tastes
"like a whole raft of lemons, like a night on the sea." And
they keep on tasting 'til the pudding is gone. The punishment
leveled by their father - a "beating" and a "whipping" of
a new pudding - is both tender and just. Cameron's creative
use of language and the way she repeats key phrases, make
each story memorable and a pleasure to read aloud. You
won't be surprised when you hear your audience chiming in
with you!

The Stories Julian tells is an exellent story. It is about a young boy named Julian who goes on adventures. One time he and his brother Huey wanted to eat a great pudding that his Dad had made but his Dad said not to touch it and they got in big trouble when they did.If you want to know what happens next just read the book.
