Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. The second book of stories for bedtimes or just for a fun read! Sally and Crumble are back together but this time The Blob is causing much more trouble. More problems with friends, less time for Dad - Sally is still trying to sort things out and hopefully - come out with a biscuit or two as well. The moral aspect is important to me and so the stories are 'sweet' and the characters all seem to learn and grow. My children are still considering legal action but I will be long gone before they can afford representation. Besides - loads of families can recognise the things that these people do. It doesn't necessarily mean I just wrote about the silly things my children have done over the years. One thing though - Poor Dad in this book! He really suffers again. He is so handsome and brave yet none of the others notice. Just want to put that out there. I really hope you like these stories. They were fun to be part of! This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Bedtime stories are a big deal in my house. We have read our way through hundreds of stories and 'Crumble Tales' is my attempt at filling some of the gaps that my children have noticed. Sally is the star - Apart from Crumble, her purple elephant, and she meets the worries and problems that most of the children I have worked with have experienced at some time. The tales are funny, meaningful and above all - real! Each of the stories has a base in something that has happened in our family. There may be a little exaggeration at some points. The stories are written to be shared and to give parents and teachers a platform to discuss the issues that children can really struggle with. Friendship, peer pressure and the difficult task of getting along with people. Even ones you don't really like all that much! Sally and Crumble go through the stories making choices. Some good - some not so good! I was keen to write using my experience as a teacher and an specialist in social- emotional work with children aged 4 to 11. I hope that 'Crumble Tales' is fun to share and helps your children to think about the common worries of school and being 'nearly nine' in different ways. Also - just to clarify. I do not find the way that 'Dad' is treated by the rest of them very funny. If anyone wants to help poor 'Dad' out. Please contact me, um, him and make suggestions. Thank you for looking at 'Crumble Tales' This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.…
