Wake Up Do Lydia Lou

I read the children’s book called, ‘Wake Up Do, Lydia Lou.’

This children’s book was written by Julia Donaldson and illustrated by Karen George.

It’s a delightful children’s picture book that tells the tale of a little girl called Lydia Lou.

When Lydia Lou goes to sleep nothing can wake her, not even a ghost.

So, when the ghost finds that it cannot wake Lydia Lou from her deep sleep he fetches some help.

He brings a kitten, a cow, an owl, a baby, a cockerel, to try and wake her, but nothing works.

Then a feather flies into the air tickling all of their noses and they all let out a huge sneeze.

Will this wake Lydia Lou or will she continue sleeping?

To find out what happened next, you’ll either have to read the book or watch the video on YouTube, then you can tell me what you think?

Freddie And The Fairy

I read the children’s book called, ‘Freddie and the Fairy.’

This children’s book was written by Julia Donaldson and illustrated by Karen George.

It’s a delightful children’s picture book about a boy called Freddie and a Fairy.

When Freddie finds a fairy called Bessie-Belle stuck in a tree he helps free her, and in return she grants him many wishes.

But the fairy Bessie-Belle couldn’t hear very well and Freddie always mumbled.

What a pair, they tried and tried to understand each other and so of course Freddie never got what he’d asked or wished for.

The fairy queen intervened to teach Freddie some rules in speaking, so Bessie-Belle could then understand the words that he was speaking.

Now Freddie’s happy now that all his wishes have been granted, but if he’d used one to help the fairies hearing, maybe he’d have got his wishes sooner.

It’s a lovely story that encourages understanding and patience.

So, why not read the book or watch the video on YouTube, then you can tell me what you think?

So, remember be mindful and patient to others unable to hear or that have trouble talking.
