The Wolves in the Walls


Author: Neil Gaiman
Illustrator: Dave McKean

Interesting for PSHCE. How do the wolves feel? Also would be great for persuasive writing - write a note persuading the family that there are wolves in the walls.

The True Story of The 3 Little Pigs


Author: Jon Scieszka
Illustrator: Lane Smith

Witty and menacing yet disconcertingly plausible. Brings into question the motivation of the press.

Story sack ideas: toys of pictures for the wolf and the pigs, a non-fiction book about pigs or wolves, a newspaper.

Not Now, Bernard


Author: David Mckee
Illustrator: David Mckee

Great to think about why Bernard's parents are ignoring him and how he usually behaves.

One for P4C.

Off the Road


Author: Nina Bawden

A real gem of a book with echoes of A Brave New World. Explores family, growing old and who can be trusted.
