What’s Swamp Water?

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

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 girl named Victoria and a very special lunch.

Victoria’s grandmother wanted to take her somewhere different for a special lunch from their usual eateries, where they neither sold hamburgers, chicken fingers or tacos.

So, when Victoria’s grandmother took her to a fancy restaurant it wasn’t what she’d expected.

When Victoria asked the waiter for a peanut butter and jelly sandwich and a glass of swamp water, she learns that neither were on the menu.  This didn’t go down too well.

So, what do you think Victoria did next?

Demand a peanut butter and jelly sandwich and a glass of swamp water or try something different from the menu?

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

It’s a great book for young children, it’s amusing with a great ending especially if you like ducks.
