Book Sharing – Sausages

I wanted to share some books about food with the children before we go in deeper into any facts about food around them. Therefore, I chose this big size book to share with them today.

Sausages by Jessica Souhami

This is a story about a poor woodcutter, named John, who found an elf on a tree one day. The elf was stuck on a tree. After helping the elf, it gave John three wishes. John was delighted with such events and got home to tell his wife, Martha. Both of them sat down and think hard of what to wish until John got hungry and wish for some sausages.

When all of the sudden sausages came down from the sky, Martha got angry and made another wish. She wished that all the sausages would stick on John’s nose. The sausage did. No matter how Martha tried to pull the sausages away from John’s nose, it’s not successful. As a result, Martha has to use the last wish to get the sausages away from John’s nose.

Even though they had used up their three wishes with all the sausages and not other valuables things, yet, they had a wonderful dinner.

The children shared about things they had seen together with sausages.

Besides that, we shall be doing some activities related to shopping malls leaflets which there will be pictures of food on it. Children were advised to collect it so that we could start doing this next week.
