#marchintooz #historydoesntrepeat
My current bedtime read with the 7 year old. History doesn‘t repeat or does it? How else can you explain finding a caveman living in the local rubbish dump? Both my kids and I have loved this old classic - I‘m guessing it looks familiar to the UK Littens but very strange to the US ones!
rockpools SOOOO familiar! We must have read it in school several times over - I remember the bottom left and top copies. And possibly a tv series. 7y
Cinfhen Yup! #clueless 🙋♀️🤷♀️ 7y
Libby1 This book is so good. I grew up in the US so wasn‘t familiar with it, but now that I live in the UK I wanted to acquaint myself with British classics. Enjoy! 7y

quietlycuriouskate I loved that book! I had the one with the yellow cover. ❤ 7y
xicanti I feel like I read this when I was a small Canadian child, but all I remember is the title. 7y
Centique @xicanti the bit that stuck in my head was building a chimney for the shack out of tin cans and a window out of ham jars. Does that ring any bells? 7y
Centique @Cinfhen I always find that a bit funny. 😋In NZ (and prob Oz) we got most of the UK popular culture and a fair chunk of US stuff growing up - so a lot of both is familiar to us. Sesame Street AND Worzel Gummidge. 😂😂 7y
Centique @RachelO YAY for great kid books @Libby1 @KarenUK @River_Voice @xicanti 7y
LeahBergen I remember the top right edition. I grew up with Puffin Books here in Canada. ❤️ 7y
Centique @LeahBergen looks like Canada got both the UK and US influences as well! 7y
Andrew65 A great book! I too remember the tv series @RachelO 7y
