We introduced Tony Ross the famous illustrator and author and his little princess stories and other books to the children this week. We discussed the illustrations and tried to design the little princess in our own ways!

Toddlers listened to the story 'I want my mum' on CD, and it was the first time we tried to colour in a picture in the library! They seem to be enjoyed playing with some colours!


For nursery and reception we listened to 'I want my mum' and read one of the other little princess stories in their second lesson. The children loved the little princess and her song!
Here is an E-book available from the library to read online!

For Year 2 we read the book 'Misery Moo' which Tony Ross worked with author Jeanne Willis. We looked at the illustrations and discussed our favourite illustration of the story. 

We also paired up to start on making our own picture books! Some of the children have decided to be the illustrators, some have decided to be the authors and some are going to do both the jobs themselves just like Tony Ross!
