"I hope Triplets will have the same effect on their audience that they had on me: Keeping childhood alive, telling about happiness - the happiness of being a child, the happiness of having children," says the author. "Telling about love, love of children for their mother, love of mother for her children. Telling about the funny side of life, the little gags, blunders and misunderstandings which happen every day in the lives of three such lively kids." says Nicole Lambert.
