What Happened Previously?

I read the children’s book called, ‘Previously,’ one afternoon.

This children’s book was written by Allan Ahlberg, and illustrated by Bruce Ingman.

The story begins with Goldilocks, and tells her story in reverse to the beginning.

I know confusing!

However this book has a unique way to tell various fairytale stories backwards using the word “Previously” to explain what happened “Previously” – get the picture.

If you get confused, the beautifully illustrated pictures should help.

This book is an interesting and exciting read that I’d recommend reading with young children, as you never know what happens next, or should I say “Previously!”

So why not read it now or watch it on YouTube and tell me what you think?

I Spy Nursery Tales?

I read the children’s book called, ‘Each Peach Pear Plum,’ yesterday.

This children’s book was written and illustrated by Janet and Allan Ahlberg.

It’s a beautifully illustrated picture book.

It’s an “I Spy,” type of book that encourages young children to interact and find the famous characters from fairy and nursery tale books within its pictures.

It’s a delightful book that I’d recommend reading with young children, they will thoroughly enjoy it.

One thing; don’t expect fruit throughout the book like the book title suggests. I thought I’d mention it so you don’t get too disappointed.

Why not read it now or watch it on YouTube and tell me what you think?
