Betty O Barley and Harry O Hay were scarecrows.They scared lots of crows every day. They've just had the best wedding ever the best wedding yet a wedding that no one would ever forget and on that very afternoon they went on a honeymoon. It was a star gazing one,filled with light for every star was shining bright. And Betty said "This is such fun" She thought night time was like basking in the sun. "betty,My beauty" Said a sleepy Harry O Hay "We should do this star gazing again one of the days" While looking up at the night sky,Harry Closed his eyes. Betty loved the stars and the moon,she could understand what happiness is soon and when she looked at her scarecow love,he was in a deep sleep. And then very soon,she was tired too from star gazing all afternoon and so she went to sleep too for she will know what tommorow brings for all of us and you.

He's been with us since we started and honestly, it wouldn't be Barnes without him!

Busy morning with my arty team prepping for @rncmlive.bsky.social Christmas Family Day on 15th Dec. Loving the Stick Man theme - it will as always be a huge fun-filled event and we’re proud to be delivering the creative activities #RNCM #JuliaDonaldson #AxelScheffler @minimastersart.bsky.social
I am SO grateful for the Flip Flap series from #AxelScheffler. It never fails to capture the attention of the children I work with who don't otherwise interact positively with books. Endless joy & belly laughs as we create the strangest creatures we can. Thank you @nosycrow.bsky.social 🦊 🐻
We LOVE story time in our house and our three-year-old can recite the majority of the works of #JuliaDonaldson and #AxelScheffler.
The greatest thing as a dad is hearing how she can transport any situation into a story and I never want to her to lose that love and power of books.
#Inspire
