Charlie Cook's Favourite Book 10th Anniversary Edition

Product Information

The Bearo Annual' featured Sir Percy Pilkington and a dragon, who laughed at Sir Percy reading a joke aloud. 'Just Joking!' was a book about Rowena Reddalot (great name - must be on goodreads!), a well-read frog, who leapt into the library to discover a little girl reading. Rowena jumped onto the book screaming, 'Reddit! Reddit! Reddit!'. One of my television songs, A SQUASH AND A SQUEEZE, was made into a book in 1993, with illustrations by the wonderful Axel Scheffler. It was great to hold the book in my hand without it vanishing in the air the way the songs did. This prompted me to unearth some plays I’d written for a school reading group, and since then I’ve had 20 plays published. Most children love acting and it’s a tremendous way to improve their reading. This cookie, set by YouTube, registers a unique ID to store data on what videos from YouTube the user has seen.

The book can be used throughout key stage one and two. At key stage one level it can be read to the class by the teacher during story time whilst the children enjoy the illustrations, and then read independently during key stage two once the children become more developed readers. You may not have the luxury of an extended budget from your school; you may have no budget at all. You may have a few storybooks in a school library or in a local bookshop. You will always have on-line bookshops with discounted books though and as a last resort, then why not invest in a couple of favourites of your own. You could always suggest it to your school as they may have only considered the use of text books and may be open to the use of real storybooks in class. Once you have made them, can you hide them around your house or garden for your family to find? Or perhaps they can hide them for you to find! Make a crocodile paper puppetYou could provide them with a few key words such as ‘ghosts’, ‘country’, ‘encyclopedia’, ‘fairy tales’ and ‘thieves’. They then have to match the key word to the book on the shelf. En mi opinión, "El cuento sin fin de Martín" es una historia original y divertida que anima e invita a leer toda clase de cuentos, haciendo descubrir e inclinando al joven lector hacia el género que más puede llamar su atención. Funnily enough, I find it harder to write not in verse, though I feel I am now getting the hang of it! My novel THE GIANTS AND THE JONESES is going to be made into a film by the same team who made the Harry Potter movies, and I have written three books of stories about the anarchic PRINCESS MIRROR-BELLE who appears from the mirror and disrupts the life of an otherwise ordinary eight-year-old. I have just finished writing a novel for teenagers. I grew up in a tall Victorian London house with my parents, grandmother, aunt, uncle, younger sister Mary and cat Geoffrey (who was really a prince in disguise. Mary and I would argue about which of us would marry him). What was the ghost's book about? It was about a cosy armchair and boy called Charlie Cook … and he's still reading!

Los cuentos que son mencionados van desde los más conocidos como son "Ricitos de Oro" o "La princesita" hasta otros menos conocidos como "La rana Renata" o "El pirata Patapalo".

I’ve had a number of people say it made them laugh when my little alien flew past in my video. The alien is green and in his flying saucer in the book. But, if you were to make an alien what would it look like? I wanted to continue the fun. So I have created lots of activities based on the book for you to continue your adventure. Let’s Dress up

Be cool and create ice ghosts

Look at the different fonts used in each book. Could you choose appropriate fonts to use in different places (e.g. comic strips, news headlines, adverts).

Julia Donaldson y Axel Scheffler, creadores del aclamado "Grúfalo", se reúnen de nuevo para traer a las bibliotecas de los más pequeños un cuento diferente y divertido que hace homenaje a todas las historias infantiles clásicas. Before Malcolm and I had our three sons we used to go busking together and I would write special songs for each country; the best one was in Italian about pasta.

Draw their attention to the title and the fact that it rhymes. You could try and think up other words which rhyme with book (hook, cook, look, took).
