Matthew and Elspeth receive startling - and expensive - news on a visit to the Infirmary, Angus and Domenica are contemplating an Italian menage a trois, and even Big Lou is overheard discussing cosmetic surgery. But when Bertie Pollock - six years old and impatient to be seven - mislays his meddling mother Irene one afternoon, a valuable lesson is learned: that wish-fulfilment is a dangerous business.    Warm-hearted, wise and very funny, The Importance of Being Seven brings us a fresh and delightful set of insights into philosophy and fraternity among Edinburgh's most loveable residents.","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46011917369563,"sku":"9780349123165-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/9780349123165-us-300.jpg?v=1725322934","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/9780349123165-secondhand-the-importance-of-being-seven","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
