Life Books for Kids
Got it!
Gran and I water the plants, then she climbs up a tree to pick coconuts. We husk them, scrape out the flesh, and put it in jars. Then we eat it!
I Can Spot …
There are many things that live on a farm, including roosters, cows, birds, and cats. These animals can all be spotted by someone who is paying attention. There is also a bug that can be spotted in the night because it glows in the dark.
In the Sky
We saw a man in the clouds and he brought a friend with him. They sang and danced in the clouds. A storm came and we ran into the house. We told our parents about the cloud men in the sky.
Mine!
The narrator is mad because his brother has all of his stuff. He wants to play, but their mum tells them both to go to bed. He looks out in the yard and sees an elephant. He jumps on for a ride and spots his brother out in the plains.
Mirror Magic
The farmer had three very selfish children who were always doing bad things. He had a magic mirror and warned his children not to play with it. But of course, they looked into the mirror anyway and saw ugly monsters staring back at them.
My Comb
The bird has a red comb which is like a crown. The speaker wants a crown too, but the bird will not give her one. She then sees a green bird with a crown and asks if she can have one, but the green bird says no.
Sun?
We love days when it rains. We can play in the puddles, lay out in the rain, and sing in the rain. At home, we can relax with a hot drink and a good book. The sun is up and it’s time to enjoy the day!
Tears
My big sister is really cool and I want to do everything that she does. Even though she sometimes cries while chopping onions, she’s still really brave and I look up to her.
The Best Tube
She makes art, and has a box with tubes of paint. She starts with some trees, and then paints a sprite that lives in the vines and the buds. She has a flower on her head. She paints the mouth of a cave. The dark water drips down like ink.
The Big Red Flower
There is a big red flower in the jungle who is a bit odd. The other flowers don’t much like her, but she doesn’t care. She’s the biggest flower in the world!
