Is There Room On Your Broom?

I read the book called ‘Room on the Broom,’ the other morning.

This book was written by Julia Donaldson and illustrated by Axel Scheffler.

It’s a delightful rhyming story about a kind witch and her cat taking a ride on a broomstick.

However, when the wind blows off her hat, it starts a whole episode of mishaps.

But when she’s about to be eaten by a very hungry dragon, her camouflaged animal friends come to the rescue!

This is a wonderful story for young children, encouraging friendship and sharing.

My final thought on this lovely illustrated book is that it’s a great story for young children to read that ends on a positive note.

The moral of the story in this book is to ‘Be kind to others and they will return the favour.’

When she hears two crafty thieves planning to steal something from the farm, she tells the other farm animals and they devise a plan to catch them.

My final thought’s on this book is; it’s funny, colourful and has a great ending.

Cheap Jeep For Sale?

I read the book called ‘Sheep in a Jeep,’ the other morning.

This book was written by Nancy Shaw and illustrated by Margot Apple.

It’s a comical rhyming story about five sheep in a Jeep.

When five sheep take a drive in a Jeep it’s not the delightful ride they were all hoping for and ends up badly when the driver sheep forgets to steer!

I’d recommend that you read this delightful rhyming book, it’s sure to put a smile on your face.

My final thought’s on this book is; that it’s a lovely story for children with fun illustrations.

Why Use A Purple Crayon?

I read the book ‘Harold and the Purple Crayon,’ the other morning which was written by Crockett Johnson.

It’s a delightful story about a little boy called Harold.

When Harold decides to go for a walk in the moonlight, he begins by drawing the sights with a large purple crayon.

Then as his imagination grows so does his adventure!

From a forest consisting of one apple tree and a dragon to guard it; to flying in a hot air balloon and eating pie!

All he desires at the end is to find his window and his bed to sleep in.

It’s a lovely story that I’d recommend reading to younger children especially at bedtime.

The moral in this story is to ‘Never give a child crayons before bedtime!’

My final thought’s on this book is; that it encourages imagination and creativity.

Now where did I put those crayons!

Do Cats Prefer White Shoes?

I read the book called ‘Pete the Cat I Love My White Shoes,’ one afternoon.

This book was created and illustrated by James Dean. The story was written by Eric Litwin.

It’s a delightful story about a cat called Pete and his brand new white shoes.

Pete’s wearing his brand new white shoes and as he walks along singing about his lovely white shoes its not long before he steps into something!

However that doesn’t faze him and as his shoes change colour he continues to walk-along and sing.

The moral of the story in this book is that ‘No matter what you step in, keep walking along and singing your song because it’s all good’! Adults take note.

My final thought’s on this book is; that it has a great storyline, it’s a fun and an entertaining read for young children and adults.

Would A Cat Wear Sunglasses?

I read the book called ‘Pete the Cat and his Magic Sunglasses,’ the other morning.

This book was created and illustrated by James Dean. The story was written by Kimberley Dean.

It’s a delightful story about a cat called Pete and some magical sunglasses.

The day is wet and Pete is unhappy, but then his grumpy friend comes along and gives him some magic sunglasses to try on that transforms his rainy day into a warm sunny one, making him very happy indeed.

Everything looks great, until the magic sunglasses break!

Then a wise owl speaks and tells Pete that he didn’t need magic sunglasses to see things in a new way; he just needed to remember to look for the good in everyday.

Pete soon realized that what the owl had said was true, he looked around and is no longer sad or blue.

The moral to the story is a positive one, ‘To look for the good in everyday.’

My final thought’s on this book is; that it’s a great story for young children to read that has a positive ending. Maybe we could all learn from reading it?
