In Wibbly's Garden

In Wibbly Pig's garden
there is a BIG surprise waiting 
for Wibbly, and for you!


This is another great story written by Mick Inkpen - and the children loved looking behind the flaps!

When Wibbly Pig put all his things under a flowerpot, Noah correctly predicted what would happen next . . .

"I think a giant beanstalk grows up" 

Kaitlin liked the part when "Wibbly Pig found a castle" and she remembered what Wibbly Pig had climbed up to find it - 
"A beanstalk!"

Thomas W told us "There's a giant!" and he remembered that he was looking for his "Hen".

Ava M told us "I liked the chicken egg, by the hen" and she told us that the hen was "On the beanstalk"

We won't tell you what happens next - we don't want to spoil the story for you, but read it and let us know what you think!

Wibbly Pig has 10 Balloons

Wibbly Pig is very proud of his 10 balloons.
But his friends arrive and everybody wants one.
Soon even his favourite teddy bear balloon has gone.

The children enjoyed counting down as poor Wibbly Pig gave away his balloons one at a time - and then Big Pig's sister let the others go!

"When the teddy bear one floated in the air" was Aaron's favourite part of the story!

And we all jumped when one of the balloons went 'POP!'

"I liked it when it popped" (Tillie)

As Wibbly Pig and Tiny Pig sat sadly in the park, something wonderful happened - "Teddy balloon came back" (Archie).
Archie thought this would make them "Happy!"

Ellie W also liked the "Teddy bear one when it came back" - this was her favourite part of the story.

Read this lovely book and let us know which balloon you would have liked to have, and why!

Lullabyhullaballoo!

The sun is down.
The moon is up.
It is past bedtime.
But outside the castle . . .

This is another classic bedtime story from Mick Inkpen and the children were once again captivated!

The Little Princess was trying to get to sleep, but there was lots of noise outside from a variety of delightful characters . . .

Poppy - "I liked the ghosts because they were all scary!"

Evie - "I liked them cause they're so spooky and white!"

The giant was stamping, galumphing and stomping! He asked if he should take off his boots . . .

Meadow - "He will still be loud! A bit loud, but not really loud"

Lily said she liked the wolves howling - they were out in the forest.

But when the Princess started crying and everyone sang her a lullaby, there was an enormous LULLABYHULLABALLOO!

We hope you enjoy this story as much as we did - let us know what you thought of it!
