My Chunky Friend Daisy

We're both poorly this week. Mummy says I got the cold first and passed it onto her.
But because we're poorly, we feel lazy. So I chose this Daisy book, because Daisy is a car that likes to be lazy.
The story rhymes and makes it all jolly and at the end she's got flat tyres!
It's colourful and chunky, and Mummy made it go Clack! when she clicked the pages together.

Hello, Dinosaurs!

I have this book at home, and it's fabulous.
It's a puppet book, which means that Mummy's hand hides away when she reads it.
Each dinosaur is a different colour, and the book is in the hand, so when Mummy reads it, she turns the page with her other hand - or lets me do it!
This week she's been singing the story, but normally she just reads it.
I went to see the doctor this week and I don't itch quite so much now.

Fire Engine

I have been very tired today.
I've had ever such a busy week (my cousin's wedding and also I've been crawling around), and i can't sleep, so i have to rub my eyes and scratch and that makes me feel sleepy and sad.
But when Mummy read Fire Engine to me, it cheered me right up!

It has a siren button on the front that goes wow-wow-wow-wow.
Then Daddy came home from work and read it to me again.
It has pop-up pages and the story tells you all about how the fire engine works.

Katy Cat and Beaky Boo

This is a new book by the lady that does Maisy Mouse.
It's lift-the-flap, and all the way through, Katy Cat (who's got the same name as my cousin Katie), talks to her friend Beaky Boo and asks him questions. She asks him what colour he is and if he's stripy and what he likes to eat.
Then you lift the flap and see what other animals are like.
Mummy lets me lift the flap but she doesn't let me pull it hard.

The Gruffalo

Just 8 days until the Gruffalo visits me on 1st September!

I have read The Gruffalo this week.
My copy of the Gruffalo was given to me by my namesake, Auntie Katherine, for my baptism in June. She also gave me Gruffalo Bookends and the Gruffalo and Mouse toys. They're my favourites.

The story is rhymy and funny. The Mouse tells all the animals that the Gruffalo will eat them, but he made it up. But the Gruffalo is really real, and the Mouse told the Gruffalo that all the animals are scared of him!
My copy is a paperback, but Mummy doesn't let me hold it, so I've reviewed the Board Book this week.

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.
