Ten In The Bed
Author and Illustrator – Penny Dale
A book based on an old nursery ryhme. However in this book the writer goes on further to observe what happens after they fall out of bed. When I read this to my 3 year old he wanted to know why the animals were falling out of bed. As we were in bed I rolled over and got him to too. He thought it was funny. We talked about why some animals made different noises as they fell out of bed. Ella for example made a big noise because shes big and heavy. My Little Man liked the ending and smiled.

The Giant Who Wanted Company
Author – Lee Priestly
Illustrated – Dennis Hockerman
I have always liked Little Golden Books. This one is about a giant who is lonely so he goes and visits his friends and invites them to go and visit him. Trouble is they all decide to come at once. Being the good host he has to look after them all which leds to lots of fun especially language wise. As he bids them farewell he asks that they come again only one at a time next time.

ABC’s

A book where we compared what was food and what was not. Some of the foods Our Little Man could idenfity and knew he ate them. He was amused by some of the things the hippo was served to eat. He learnt about some foods like a kiss which I told him was made of chocolate. We agreed hed like them. A fun and educational book to share

Disney’s Return to Never Land
Author - Steve Williams
Illustrated – the Disney’ Storybook Artists
This book was brought out at about the same time as the movie. Wendy is all grown up with children of her own. Her daughter Jane doesnt believe in the story until she finds herself in Neverland.
I have always preferred the original story.
