Mister Moon

MISTER MOON by Grace Andreacchi

Mister Moon looks out of the sky
And watches me with his big bright eye
Ands follows me wherever I go -
Hello, Mister Moon! Hello!
Of all the children that he can see
Why does he choose to follow me?
And watch me with his eye so bright -
Good night, Mister Moon!Good night!

Cute or Worrying?!

On a family walk with friends last Sunday, my 18 month old was reasonably mute throughout the whole chilly experience, until three minutes away from the Plowden Arms …  she started saying, ‘Pub…pub… pub’!

Mouse Poem

Mary had a little mouse.
Its fur was white as snow.
And everywhere that Mary went
The mouse was sure to go.
It followed her to school one day,
Which wasn’t Mary’s plan,
For when the mouse jumped on her desk,
The teacher screamed and ran!
