Roald Dahl
Each week as students in Stages 2 and 3 are picking their library books, I am asked about Roald Dahl. They are oldies, but they are still requested because they are goodies. They are reasonably easy to read and students love them! A great book present!
The Terrible Plop
This lovely book was nominated for book week. It didn't win, but it was my pick. The chilren loved it and read along with me as I read them the book. It is about some rabbits hearing a terrible plop and running out of the forest to escape it. They see a bear on the way and warn him, but he is not frightened. He picks up one rabbit to take him back to the site of 'The Terrible Plop.' Once there, the rabbit sees that the terrible plop is not something to be frightened of, but the bear runs off, petrified!!! A lovely read!
