What Would You Rather Do?

I read the children’s book called ‘Would you rather,’ the other morning.

This book was written and illustrated by John Burningham.

It’s a lovely story about a little boy and his creative imagination.

Throughout this wonderfully illustrated book, questions are asked and choices are to be made which encourages the reader to join in.

At the beginning of the book you have a choice of whether you’d like your house to be surrounded by water, snow or a jungle? From then on the choices get a bit more interesting and wackier!

This is a wonderful story for young children, by encouraging imagination and creativity, it could open their minds to other possibilities; to do what they’d rather instead of the same routine?

My final thought’s on this book is that it’s a great way to interact with your child, and if they’re a fussy eater, then at meal times why not offer a choice of foods using the method in the book, for example ask your child, ‘Would you rather have spaghetti, pasta or pizza for lunch?’ Let them make the choice, at least that way you know they’re going to eat some of it.

It doesn’t have to stop there you could offer choices throughout the day, it could transform you and your child’s life, and later as they get older you could try your negotiating skills out on them!

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

Are Aliens Behind Fracking?

Do you think an alien species have infiltrated Earth, and is using Fracking as a way to destroy us?

Think about it for a moment; Fracking has already been sold to us under the pretence of being a green source of energy.

But if it’s such a green source of energy, why are there so many negative points, for example; it’s not bio degradable; it contaminates our water supply; causes cancer and respiratory disease etc.

Now I’m not trying to alarm anyone, but this surely cannot be a safe method to obtain even more fuel? Whatever happened to Health & Safety?

It appears to me that Fracking is not human or environmentally friendly, causing problems to our health, devastation to our environment and to our planet!

So, is it possible that this is happening for a reason?

Could it be a way to rid the Earth of humans in order to make way for a new alien species that want to live on our planet, Earth?

What’s A Rumble In The Jungle?

I read the book called ‘Rumble in the Jungle,’ last week.

This book was written by Giles Andreae and illustrated by David Wojtowycz

It’s a comical rhyming book about animals that live in the jungle.

In this beautifully illustrated book, each jungle animal is explained to the reader in a series of rhymes.

It’s educational and encourages children to learn about jungle animals simply and in a humorous way.

I’d definitely recommend reading this book to children of all ages.

Do You Believe In Science Fiction, Fact or Fantasy?

Welcome to my first blog post on sci-fi, fact or fantasy.

This first posting is about my new exciting sci-fi trilogy.

Inspired by my love of sci-fi, I’ve just finished writing three science fiction books and wanted you all to know.                                                                        

The first book called, ‘The Walkways Awakening,’ is to be released shortly, so just follow the posts and look out for the books release date.

This first book merges fact with fiction. It was written to awaken you to current events that are happening on our planet!

It tells the horrific story of a fracking incident that leads to thousands of Earthlings being thrown into an alien civilization, an alien invasion and the threat of our planet Earth’s destruction.

The question is; who can save us?

Do Dog’s Sleep Anywhere?

I read the children’s book called ‘Time for Bed Fred,’ one afternoon.

This book was written and illustrated by Yasmeen Ismail.

It’s a delightful tale of a dog called Fred who doesn’t want to go to bed.

Fred the dog does not want to go to bed, instead he wants to play outside in the garden. Finally when Fred the dog does go to sleep it’s anywhere except in his own bed!

Sounds familiar?

A great book to read at bedtime; young children will love it.

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

How To Make A Plan?

I read the children’s book called ‘Shh! we have a plan,’ a few weeks ago.

The book was written and illustrated by Chris Haughton.

It’s a story about four friends that try and catch a beautiful bird.

After their failed attempt at catching the beautiful bird, they run off into the forest and find a Squirrel.

And guess what?

They have a plan!

It’s a very funny and entertaining book, I’d definitely recommend it.

It’s great for young children with repetitive words and counting.
