Pyjama Drama

M aya could barely contain her
excitement – her dad had booked a
llama trek at a local farm! She only saw
him once a month, and they always did
something special together.

Maya was so excited she couldn’t sleep
the night before the trip and she fidgeted
all the way to the farm.

“Try to calm down, Maya,” said Dad.
“Animals pick up on it when you’re
agitated, you know.”

When they pulled up, Maya bounded out
of the car and scrambled over a haystack.
Dad dragged her to the meeting place,
where lots of other families were waiting.

Soon Mrs Bovey joined them. She
was in charge of the llamas. “She’s

Finally, they set off on the trek. Maya

Anders and
the Red Hat

Once there was a little boy called Anders,
and he had a new hat. A better hat had never
been seen, because his mother had made it. It was
bright red with a smart blue tassel on top.

Anders wanted everybody to
see how good he looked in
his hat, so he put his hands
in his pockets and went out
for a walk.

“Why, I thought you were a

Famous Fables

The Blue Jackal

One dark night in India, a hungry jackal was stalking
through a village looking for food when a pack of
dogs caught his scent and chased him.

Dogs hate jackals, so the jackal ran wildly through the village trying to
escape. He swerved around a corner and leapt into a large barrel,
where he hid. Luckily, the dogs raced by. They had lost his scent.
When he was sure it was safe, the jackal crept out of the vat and
skulked back towards the jungle but, as he passed a pond, he was
startled by his own reflection. In the light of the moon, his fur looked
bright blue. He must have jumped into a barrel of blue dye!
The jackal grinned. “This could be interesting,” he thought.
“I look like no other animal in the jungle.”

Around the World Tales

Kintu and Nambi

In early times, nobody lived in Uganda except for one
man, whose name was Kintu. Kintu owned a cow which
was his only friend, so he was very lonely.

Up in the sky, somewhere beyond the clouds, lived King Ggulu. He had many
sons and daughters, who used to slide down to Earth whenever there was a
rainbow and stay for a while to explore. They thought Earth was beautiful.
One day, two of King Ggulu’s sons saw a rainbow touching Earth.
“Come with us,” they called to their sister Nambi. So she joined her
brothers and slid all the way down the rainbow to Uganda.

When they arrived, they saw Kintu “However,” said the king, “if you want

Favourite Fairy Tales

The Town Musicians

of Bremen

Once upon a time, a farmer was leading his donkey to
the mill when he noticed the donkey was struggling
under the weight of the sacks on his back.

“This is no good,” muttered the farmer. “What use
is a donkey if he’s too old to carry sacks?”

The donkey felt sad. He knew he wasn’t as strong
as he used to be and sensed his time was coming
to an end.

That day, the donkey escaped from the barn and

When he had walked for a while, he

gasping for breath.

“Who are you hiding from?”
asked the donkey.

“My master,” panted the dog. “He wanted me to hunt for him, but I’m too
old and tired for that, so I ran away.”
“Indeed,” said the donkey, “I am going to Bremen to be the town musician.
Why don’t you come along too? I’ll strum the guitar and you can

beat the drum.” The dog agreed and on they went.

Before long, they met a cat who was
sitting on the path looking miserable.
“Now then,” asked the donkey, “why
do you look so troubled?”
“Who can smile when they have such

The Land of
Counterpane

By Robert Louis Stevenson

32

When I was sick and lay a-bed,
I had two pillows at my head,
And all my toys beside me lay
To keep me happy all the day.
And sometimes for an hour or so
I watched my leaden soldiers go,
Tbna \bƂ]l]hn ohb^ilgm Xh\ \lbeemҮ
Among the bedclothes, through the hills;
=h\ mig]nbg]m m]hn gs mabjm bh Ƈ]]nm
All up and down among the sheets;
Or brought my trees and houses out,
And planted cities all about.

I was the giant great and still
That sits upon the pillow-hill,
And sees before him, dale and plain,

The pleasant land of Counterpane.

Myths and Legends

Rhodopis

The Egyptian Cinderella

Long ago in Ancient Egypt, the great pharaoh ruled
alone and wished for a queen to sit on the throne
beside him – someone to share his life with.

Far away in the city of Naucratis, a slave girl called Rhodopis went to bed
every night and wished for her freedom. She worked hard for her owners,
cleaning, washing, cooking and sewing all day long. She was so skilful with
a needle, other slave-owners would get her to mend their clothes too.

Sugar Plum’s

Sweet Shop

Ask anyone in Storyland what their favourite place is,
and they’ll say Sugar Plum’s Sweet Shop. Why?
Because magic is amazing and sweets are delicious –
and when you put the two together, you get something
that's amazingly delicious!

The shop was even better around Easter, as that was when Sugar Plum
made her famous chocolate delights. They weren’t just any old chocolates!
They had two special ingredients – a sprinkle of magic dust and a pinch of
crushed cloudmallows.

When you ate a chocolate delight, it gave you a warm, happy feeling from
the top of your head down to the tips of your toes. Some even claimed they
