The Gruffalo | Julia Donaldson
post image

"Silly old owl, doesn't he know? There's no such thing as a Gruffalo!"

Such starts the story of a #Cunning little mouse who weaves a tale about a mythical creature called a Gruffalo to escape a deadly fate at the hands.... er, claws, jaws, and paws... of some scary animals. But silly mouse, doesn't HE know? There just might BE a Gruffalo!

vkois88 @Tamra she's fantastic! We've really liked everything we've seen/read so far... except Stick Man. That one couldn't keep LO's attention. I think I included some of her other books in my latest Book Outlet order. I need to peek again 6y
Tamra @vkois88 I think Stick Man is for a more mature child - it seems abstract and slower paced. The video adaption of it is wonderful, so poignant! 6y

Tamra @vkois88 I‘ve loved everything by her. Our very favorite is Spiffiest Giant in Town. 6y
vkois88 @Tamra I'll try to watch Stick Man when LO is napping one day... and I haven't heard of the other! I'll keep an eye out for that one too 6y
kezzlou85 My girls loved the Gruffalo and the Gruffalos child. We used to listen to the audio book constantly in the car. There's even a Gruffalo trail near here. 6y
vkois88 @kezzlou85 that's so cool!! I'm gonna keep an eye out for the audiobooks 6y
kezzlou85 @vkois88 it was a CD version that we had. 6y

There‘re many fables involving foxes in Aesop‘s Fables, all of them morally interesting, and many depict the fox as a #cunning and sly animal.
The Crow and The Fox, The Stork and The Fox, The Fox and the Cock.

They say that foxes are very #cunning. It's true. Here is a selection of cuties. From top left clockwise: Sly, Doggett, Vixen, and Mulder.

#NewHogwartsAdventure Day 22: The fox has always been portrayed as the #cunning creature that ensnares its unsuspecting quarry in mythology/ folk tales. It plays that character to the hilt in this narrative. But the fox does not ‘eat‘ its prey the way we expect. It shows the reader that there is a fate worse than death, that there is unremitting darkness in those haunted eyes filled with malice and foreboding. Full review - https://wp.me/pDlzr-54J
