A warm and witty work of Australian children's fiction, Thalia the Failure chronicles the misadventures of Thalia, a young girl who feels perpetually overshadowed by her seemingly perfect, high-achieving family. Robin Klein presents Thalia's world with sharp humor and genuine empathy, illustrating how a child's sense of inadequacy can be both painfully real and wonderfully absurd. As Thalia stumbles through a series of well-intentioned but disastrous attempts to prove her worth, the narrative uncovers the quiet strengths that lie beneath self-doubt. Klein's signature blend of comedy and heart ensures that readers of all ages will find both laughter and recognition in Thalia's endearingly chaotic journey toward self-acceptance.
