What’s The Right Type Of Hug?


I read the children’s book called, ‘Hugs.’

This children’s book was written by Robert Munsch and is beautifully illustrated by Michael Martchencko.

It’s a delightful children’s picture book that tells the tale of a young girl named Thea.

After being mad with her mum Thea takes her little brother Tate out for a walk.

But after they’d walked for a while Theas little brother wanted a hug.

But after hugging him he told her that it wasn’t the right type of hug, so she decided to try something different.

So, she introduced him to different types of animals to hug instead.

But will her little brother want to hug a smelly or spikey animal?

Would you?

To find out what happens in the end why not read the book, or you could with parental guidance watch the story on YouTube, then you can tell me what you think.

It’s a great book for children. It will inspire their imagination and creativity, plus I’m sure you’d get a hug out of it too.

What To Put In An Enormous Suitcase?


I read the children’s book called, ‘The Enormous Suitcase,’ yesterday.

This children’s book was written by Robert Munsch and illustrated by Michael Martchenko.

It’s a delightful children’s picture book that tells the tale of a young girl named Kelsey and her enormous suitcase.

Every other week Kelsey stayed with her dad and his cat, and each time Kelsey would take an extra item in her enormous suitcase to remind her of home.

However, when Kelsey’s mum stops her from taking the dog, she finds another unique way of taking it.

Also, there was another issue, the cat!

What do you think happened when the dog saw the cat?

To find out what happened next why not read the book, or you could with parental guidance watch the story on YouTube, then you can tell me what you think.

It’s a great book for children and adults, it shows consideration amongst separated parents.

What’s Down Your Drain?


I read the children’s book called, ‘Down The Drain,’ the other morning.

This children’s book was written by Robert Munsch and is beautifully illustrated by Michael Martchenko.

It’s a delightful children’s picture book that tells the tale of a young boy named Adam that hated having baths.

One day when Adam jumped too high on the trampoline he landed in some ashes, now covered from head to toe, he now had to have a bath.

Unfortunately, left to his own devices Adam got carried away and after putting too much water into the bath it overflowed and filled up the bathroom.

His father tried desperately to persuade him to pull the plug out, but before doing so Adam gave him a list of things that he wanted.

So, what do you think happened next?

Did Adam pull out the plug like his father asked him to do, or did he make further demands?

To find out what happened next, why not read the book, or you could with parental guidance watch the story on YouTube, then you can tell me what you think.

It’s a great book for children especially after bath time.

Have You Ever Had Stripes?


I read the children’s book called, ‘A Bad Case of Stripes.’

This children’s book was written and beautifully illustrated by David Shannon.

It’s a delightful children’s picture book that tells the tale of a young girl named Camilla who falls ill on her first day of school, to a bad case of stripes.

The doctors and specialists were all unsure of what had caused the stripes, but then she found that her skin could change colour and show different patterns too.

Then it got worse.

She began to form into other shapes, until finally she’d become unrecognizable.

How would she ever become a little girl again?

To find out what happened next why not read the book, or you could with parental guidance watch the story on YouTube, then you can tell me what you think.

It’s a great book for children. It inspires imagination and creativity.

Let’s hope that stripes aren’t catching!

Are You Ever Too Old For Braids?


I read the children’s book called, ‘Braids,’ the other day. 

This children’s book was written by Robert Munsch and is beautifully illustrated by Dave Whamond.
It’s a delightful witty children’s picture book that tells the tale of a young girl named Ashley.

After her mum took hours to braid her hair, Ashley was sad because she’d missed playing outside with the other kids.

That was up until her grandmother arrived, for as soon as her grandmother saw Ashley’s mother’s hair, she decided to braid it too and then the chase was on.

Ashley’s mother didn’t want her hair braided, for as far as she was concerned, she was an adult now and could leave it messy if she wanted too, but Ashley’s grandmother insisted and began chasing her all over the house.

Did Ashley’s grandmother succeed in catching her daughter and braiding her hair?

To find out what happened next why not read the book, or you could with parental guidance watch the story on YouTube, then you can tell me what you think.

It’s a great book for children and adults to read for it shows that you’re never too old for your mother to braid your hair!
