Today was National Simultaneous Story Time all over Australia! and this year's chosen book was one of my faves from 2010 - Feathers for Phoebe by Rod Clements. It's an utterly gorgeous book - slightly text-heavy but so entrancing and visually evocative, even three-year-olds sat mesmerised. Or maybe it was the fact that I wore a feather headdress and acted like a nutbag during the reading...
The kids also made their own feathery crests to wear during the reading and we of course had to sing Five Little Ducks and read another book on birds, too. So much fun. Huge thanks to the lovely Jill Howard (above) for having me along to read to the kids - I had a ball.
Peep!
