A favourite literacy activity with older kiddos for some years now, has been six-word stories. Know them? If not, do some sleuthing. This book takes that premise and turns it into another fun read, plus a delightful springboard for some quick creative writing for your kiddos.

Like all the marvellous books from Scribble, it is quirky and different and introduces us to creators from other countries and cultures, with different approaches and ideas. These bring a whole new excitement to sharing books with our kiddos. The super bright and bold illos in this one will delight your readers just as much as the snappy short stories, sending them into peals of laughter.

Once upon a time there was a parrot and there was another parrot.

“Hi, I’m Henry.”

“Hi, I’m Henry.”

“What a coincidence!”

“What a coincidence!”

Insert identical parrots 🦜 for more laughs.

Have fun with this one because your Smalls and even Not-So-Smalls will love it. It’s a 5 🦜🦜🦜🦜🦜 rating from me!
