Would You Ask A Dinosaur To Dinner?


One morning last week I read the children’s book called, ‘Never ask a Dinosaur to Dinner.’

This children’s book was written by Gareth Edwards and illustrated by Guy Parker-Rees.

It’s a delightful children’s rhyming picture book that shares a little boys imaginative account of what happened at his house from dinner time to bedtime.

The story contains a dinosaur, a shark, a beaver, a tiger, a bison and a barn owl.

Most young children I know love stories about dinosaurs and sharks, but don’t really know anything about beavers, tigers, bison’s or barn owls which makes this children’s book an interesting read.

The storylines creative but also educational as each animal’s appearance and instincts are explained in a very simple way for young children to understand.

This is a lovely book to read together especially at bedtime and with Teddy (bear) as he does get a mention.

So, why not read the book or with parental guidance or permission watch the story on YouTube, then you can tell me what you think.

How To Make A Fabulous Pie

I read the children’s book called, ‘Fabulous Pie,’ the other morning.

This colourful children’s book was written by Gareth Edwards and is beautifully illustrated by Guy Parker-Rees.

This story is about a bear that wants to make a fabulous pie but first he needs to find a filling.

The forest animals are happy to help find filling for the pie; berries, hazelnuts, honey and a fish.

But after all their efforts they’re angry that the bear still thinks it’s not full enough and wants something extra.

Unfortunately for them they’re shocked to learn that the something extra is them!

Will the forest animals escape or become pie filling? 

Read the book or watch the story on Youtube then tell me what happens at the end and let me know your favourite pie filling, mines apple.
