The Flying Bath


I read the children’s book called, ‘The Flying Bath.’

This children’s book was written by Julia Donaldson and illustrated by David Roberts.

This delightful rhyming children’s picture book tells the story of a flying bath.

The bath is like a super hero, for as it flies across the sky it helps many.

It drips water onto the flowers to help them grow, pours water onto a piglet to make it clean.

It also puts a fire out, saves some fish, and then flies home for the children’s bathtime.

It’s a lovely book to read especially at bedtime.

So, why not take a peek and read the book or watch the story on YouTube, then you can tell me what you think.

A great book to read with young children.

What’s A Tyrannosaurus Drip?

I read the children’s book called, “Tyrannosaurus Drip.

This children’s book was written by Julia Donaldson and illustrated by David Roberts.

This delightful children’s book tells the story about a stolen duck billed dinosaur egg that gets put into a Tyrannosaurus nest by accident.

The Tyrannosaurus parents know something’s not quite right once all three eggs have hatched as two baby dinosaurs are the image of the parents whilst the third baby dinosaur’s appearance is quite different.

Then one day the Tyrannosaurus parents and siblings go on a hunting expedition excluding the duck billed dinosaur.

Upset the duck billed dinosaur runs away, but to his amazement he comes across some extraordinary dinosaurs that happen to look just like him.

It’s a wonderful story about being different and the need to belong.

So take a leaf out of the duck billed dinosaurs book and if you feel that either you don’t fit in or don’t belong then don’t be a clone and stick around, set-up your own group about the things that you like and then the future will look quite bright.

So read the book or listen to the story on YouTube, then you can tell me what you think.

What's A Flum Flum Tree?

I read the children’s book called, ‘Jack and the Flum Flum Tree,’ the other morning.

This children’s book was written by Julia Donaldson and illustrated by David Roberts.

It’s a delightful children’s story about a boy called Jack and his adventure to find a flumflum tree.

When the only cure for Jacks grannies spots is the fruit from a flumflum tree, he goes on a mission to find one. Taking his friends Rosie and Stu with him and a patchwork sack they travel by sea.

However it’s not long before they have a few problems but Jack’s not worried, he remembers what’s in the patchwork sack and uses the items to help them.

It’s a lovely story that I’d recommend reading with young children.

And if you want to find out what’s in the patchwork sack, read it now or watch it on YouTube, then you can tell me what you think.
