A Read-Aloud Book
by Jenny Morris
A Read-Aloud story for children based around Aussie animals with beautiful lexical choices to increase the children's vocabulary. A delightful tale of adventure that evokes the spirit of animal life in the Australian bush. This is another gem among the many poetic narratives from the Award-winning author, Jenny Morris, for children's educational literature.
"Bluey Blue Tongue forms a plan, then gives out sound advice.
On how to fix a problem. He makes it sound so nice.
But is the plan just hare-brained, risky, rash, perverse,
That doesn't jot or tittle help; in fact makes matters worse?
Perhaps events unfolding strew hairline cracks of doubt?
So, is it harum scarum? Or does Bluey's plan work out?"
