Laughing your pants off!

I thought I would complete your education with more zany, weird kids’ books (that most adults can enjoy too)! Amazon packages have been flooding into our postbox lately… There wouldn’t be Christmas without Amazon, would there?

My most recent packages are … a secret! But a couple of weeks ago, the books I ordered for the anklebiters arrived.

To the left, you can see the latest book by that wonderful duo Julia Donaldson and illustrator Alex Scheffler. Julia really knows how to write some rollicking rocking rhythm. Previous favourites of ours (the anklebiters know them off by heart) include Room on the Broom and, of course, The Gruffalo. If you don’t know what a Gruffalo is, then you must read the book!

In this new book, the poor living stick man gets mistaken for an ordinary old stick – and he gets thrown to a dog, used as a Pooh stick and has other adventures that take him further and further away from Mrs. Stick and his twiglets… Just in case you’re biting your nails at this point, I’d better point out that the book does have a happy ending!

PHEW!

The book on the right de-bunks the myth that aliens come to earth to prod us with probes or to take over the world.  All they want are your fanciest and best underpants! You could say that they are undercover agents that are out of this world!

When aliens come down to Earth,

They don’t come to meet YOU…

They simply want your underpants —

I’ll bet you never knew!

Remember – this is the blog that tells you things your teachers never did!
