Get Ahead Fred in the Snow

Hi everyone, Fred here – it’s been snowing all over the country and I got out my bobble hat.  You may remember I wore it last year in the snow…well actually this year.  I forget that it was January that it snowed.  We’ve had such a busy year with lots of fun hat filled activities.  I’ve been all over the country and taken part in so many events.  Then locally… Read More »Get Ahead Fred in the Snow

Review for Four Little Pigs from “Truth About Books”

Cute variation on “The Three Little Pigs” fairytale… This entertaining adaptation of the original classic “The Three Little Pigs”, in which the story is turned on its head by the introduction of a fourth little pig in the guise of a magically altered little boy called Tom, is both fun and quirky. Colourful illustrations bring the story to life, as Tom visits his magical Grandmother, who happens to be a… Read More »Review for Four Little Pigs from “Truth About Books”

My Parents

I’m off to Granny’s again. You are probably wondering why I always go to my granny’s? Well my parents are secret agents and they get called away on missions over the weekend (baddie work on the weekend). Of course I am not supposed to tell you that. I am supposed to tell you the cover story that they are both boring old police officers who sometimes have to work night… Read More »My Parents

Treasure Hunt!

I decided to do a treasure hunt for Netty, Harry and their friends.  I placed 10 clues written on bits of paper around the beach, hoping that the children would have fun finding them.  Once they began, I could see that my clues were not where I had placed them with Scampi!  They had gone missing! All the children were running around the beach puzzled shouting “Where’s the next clue?”… Read More »Treasure Hunt!

Spirit of Christmas

Wow, what a show!  The Spirit of Christmas is the only retail fair that Maverick attends and so it is a great opportunity to meet the market and chat to the public. Maverick had a fantastic show, our stand looked amazing – it really stood out and showed off our books wonderfully. There was one book that flew off the stand, selling more than double than any other title.  This… Read More »Spirit of Christmas

Netty and the silver spoon!

Netty and Harry were bored because their pocket money had been cut, so I suggested that we all search for treasure using a metal detector.  “Yay!!”  Cheered Netty “If we find lots of money we can buy all the ice cream in all the world!” Harry held the detector with the headphones on his head while the rest of us followed.  Nothing for a while and then it beeped, in… Read More »Netty and the silver spoon!
