The Gruffalo

We have been sharing another Julia Donaldson story - and as anticipated, this one was very popular!

'A mouse took a stroll 

through the deep dark wood.

The fox saw the mouse

and the mouse looked good.'

When Fox invited Mouse to come and have lunch with him in his underground house, the quick-thinking mouse told him he was going to have lunch with a gruffalo - and his favourite food was roasted fox!

"The fox is scared!" - Amelia

After the fox had sped away, Mouse met an owl and a snake - and he continued to develop his description of the gruffalo . . . 

"His eyes are orange" - Georgia

"He's big - purple prickles on his back" - Kaidence

And then Mouse came face to face with the Gruffalo!

"The Gruffalo said the mouse looked good to eat on some toast!" - Zara

We won't tell you what happened next as we don't want to spoil the story - but have a read of the book yourself and let us know what you think!
