Résumé

Although not yet ripe, Alexander is mature beyond his years. He dreams of the exciting things that await him when he is older - like becoming a bottle of grape juice and travelling to far off lands! With an election underway, he becomes immersed in local politics- campaigning to lower the age necessary to become grape juice. Will the grapes in the vineyard listen to a young grape of only 9 years of age (or 9 and a quarter as he suggests)? This story seeks to teach children about the right to equal treatment and freedom from discrimination on the basis of age. This right protects a variety of persons-children, youth, adults, and the elderly-from unfair treatment.
