some fun books, and your chance to be Stephen Moffat for the day! (well... 3 minutes)
Hello!
Don't forget, there are plenty of cracking reads out there. Here, Little ones, is an example:
Not now, Bernard
The story of Ignorance, sort of.
Bernard's parents don't want to hear what Bernard has to say. Bernard is getting in the way. he never says anything important.
Except, he is. for there is a monster trying to eat him.
and the parents dont want to hear what the monster has to say, either.
if you like reading, why not give writing a go?
and here is a fantastic oppurtunity to do so!
