The Scarecrow's Wedding

The children have been enjoying participating in the action rhyme 'Dingle Dangle Scarecrow' so we thought we would introduce them to this next Julia Donaldson book . . .

The story is about Betty O'Barley and Harry O'Hay - they are hoping to have the best wedding ever, the best wedding yet, the wedding that no one will ever forget.

But what will happen when Reginald Rake arrives - will he spoil their special day?

Part way through the story, Betty is in danger as flames flicker higher . . . but don't worry, her true love appears and puts out the fire!

JJ told us "I liked that man who put out the fire"

Harry R also liked this part of the story - "The man put it out with a bucket"

We hope you enjoy reading this book and finding out what else happens in the story - Flynn told us afterwards - "They had a party!"

Have you been to a wedding? We would love to hear all about it - post us a comment and let us know.
