We have had great fun reading The Gruffalo and The Gruffalo’s Child. Kathleen very kindly came to read the Scot’s language versions of The Gruffalo and The Gruffalo’s Wean.
The Morning Group made a giant Gruffalo scone, which was delicious!
Both groups have been working together to make a display with the characters of the Gruffalo!

Wow! Your Gruffalo display is fantastic. My favourite story is the Gruffalo in Scots. Is The Gruffalo’s Wean just as good? I hope it has the moose and the tod and the hoolet in it.
Mrs Gill, The Gruffalo’s Wean is every bit as good as The Gruffalo!
