The Gruffalo's Child

Did you know that the Gruffalo is coming to visit me on 1st September? That's in two weeks' time.
To celebrate, Mummy has been reading me the Gruffalo stories.
This week, I have chosen The Gruffalo's Child.
You are supposed to read The Gruffalo first, which I have read, but this week was the first time I had read the Gruffalo's Child.
It's really funny, because the Gruffalo's Child doesn't believe in the Big Bad Mouse, and is naughty because she goes out into the wood on her own.
You meet all the characters from The Gruffalo story again.

I hope you'll all come to see me when the Gruffalo visits. It's going to be amazing!

The Pig's Knickers


I have chosen The Pig's Knickers.
We've had a few story-times this summer holiday, and this one was read to me this week by Tammy.
I can't remember all of the other books, but they were all great!
In this story, Pig finds some knickers and then does lots of tricks in them
to all his farmyard friends. They think he's amazing but Pig thinks they
don't love him when he's not wearing his new knickers.
Pig was very talented.
This book was really funny.

Crunchy Croc

This book is a Puppet Book.

It's by Sam Lloyd who did Calm Down, Boris!
Coco the Crocodile is really hungry, like me, but she goes around and eats everything! And she nibbles my fingers.
All of her friends are hot and thirsty, but they don't have any water. Coco makes a waterhole.
This week, my friend Xavier came to visit me. He's 14 weeks old, which is the same age I was when I started recommending books on here!
He enjoyed the book too, and especially the puppet, and he let me cuddle him, too.

Buggy Book Tweet! Tweet!

I have chosen a Buggy Book this week.
There are lots of fab ones available- I have had Thomas the Tank Engine, but it's board and I chewed it. Mummy got a bit annoyed with that, so she swapped it for this one. The Usborne ones are made of Bath Cloth so I can chew it as much as I want and it doesn't disappear.
The bird goes Tweet! and flies around the book, from a tree onto the pavement and tweets again.
I like chewing this one (with my four new top teeth)

Noisy Diggers

This week has been very busy for me. I've got 4 new teeth coming (on the top gum); one of which is huge and two more have just broken through.
Mummy's advert was in the newspaper, too. I'm in the picture looking cute as usual.
This week's book is another noisy book. There are different diggers and they made noises. I press the speaker and nothing works, but mummy can press the noise. Even daddy can press the noise, but I keep hitting it and it works sometimes. I love it. I like to turn the pages, but sometimes when I hit the page, the page doesn't turn over.

Pantone Colours

This book is brilliant!
On each page, there's a picture in one colour, and opposite are all the different shades of that colour.
Mummy's favourite page was green, but I liked the red page best. And then the brown.
I love turning the pages. And Mummy did all different sounds for the names of the colours.
Mummy says the colours are named with a name and the correct pantone code. So, Mitten Purple is pantone 259 and Mouse Grey is pantone 404.

The Duckling gets a Cookie!?

It is Independent Booksellers' Week this week, and we had three storytimes! Gaby read for 2 of them - she's mummy's friend, and Piper is her baby, who is my friend. Piper enjoyed the stories too - Gaby is such a good story-teller, much better than Daddy (but he'll get better with practice). Gaby chose this book for me - the Duckling gets a cookie because he asked nicely, and the Pigeon was not happy about that. He learned to ask nicely, though, and he got the cookie. It was funny.
We both wore our nielsen teeshirts.

The pigeon is known for having tantrums when he doesn't get his way...
