And of course, the soldier ants were guarding the Queen. &#8220;But<br \/>\nfor one ant, it was a very special birthday!&#8221; While he wanted to<br \/>\ncelebrate properly, his house was very small, so he decided just to<br \/>\ninvite the neighbours for the &#8216;little&#8217; gathering.

Now, right off the bat,<br \/>\nlet me say that soggy tomato sandwiches bring up some VERY bad memories<br \/>\n for me of such school lunch &#8216;delights&#8217;! So when the fly leaf tells me<br \/>\nthis is for those &#8220;who turn soggy sandwiches into delicious days&#8221; they<br \/>\nhave my attention!! For my American friends, I should tell you that sit<br \/>\ndown dining room lunches, is not what Australian schools generally have.<br \/>\n We used to bring lunch from home and eat these un-refridgerated delights in hot<br \/>\n schoolyards. This is still much the same today, but High Schools (and some Elementary or Primary Schools), have canteens where better food can be purchased, if you can afford such things.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogger.googleusercontent.com\/img\/b\/R29vZ2xl\/AVvXsEiUgoTthqzy8ZTFYElhf70UFVUTjaqVyIyMPC8TDmv-H_XxrznLM8Ys7Cvwye1FseYvFhz9DTQY7lDHxlY18w-aZ6OE3hfN1xwOIEZYM1W5O37BNzpgu_KvrY7upswyt6l16IAmRda-HGKOFo2WnYD2-GipPwwDU6XevdUE4j7MCezFE_2DZ1MQ0YCzKmSa\/s2382\/TomatoSandwich.jpg\" style=\"clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" data-original-height=\"2382\" data-original-width=\"1772\" height=\"370\" src=\"https:\/\/blogger.googleusercontent.com\/img\/b\/R29vZ2xl\/AVvXsEiUgoTthqzy8ZTFYElhf70UFVUTjaqVyIyMPC8TDmv-H_XxrznLM8Ys7Cvwye1FseYvFhz9DTQY7lDHxlY18w-aZ6OE3hfN1xwOIEZYM1W5O37BNzpgu_KvrY7upswyt6l16IAmRda-HGKOFo2WnYD2-GipPwwDU6XevdUE4j7MCezFE_2DZ1MQ0YCzKmSa\/w275-h370\/TomatoSandwich.jpg\" width=\"275\"\/><\/a><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial;\">Award<br \/>\n winning author-illustrator Caroline Magerl has given us an incredible<br \/>\nwordless book! There is a uniqueness in this work rarely seen. Our<br \/>\ncentral character wakes to a less than normal day. Just who has decided<br \/>\nto start the vacuum cleaner so early?! This must be stopped! So, with<br \/>\n&#8216;magic&#8217; wand in hand she stops the culprit. Perhaps a nice breakfast<br \/>\nwill calm her down. She has the cleaning culprit at her mercy. What will<br \/>\n she choose for her treat?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial;\">Cereal?<br \/>\n Boiled eggs? No, I have them at my mercy. A very special cupcake.<br \/>\nSadly&#8217; it ends up as just a sandwich. She sets off with her trusty dog<br \/>\nand her sling shot for a day out. Perhaps she can get a cup cake at the<br \/>\nlocal cake shop? Meanwhile, her Dad, has been cooking a cup cake, unsuccessfully. She arrives at home with the smell of smoke. The day continues<br \/>\n in many unexpected ways.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial;\">Caroline<br \/>\n Magerl was born in Frankfurt Germany, but came to Australia aged 2 (so<br \/>\nwe&#8217;re claiming her as our author)! She lived on her families&#8217; yacht until she<br \/>\n was 14. In 2001 she won the Children&#8217; Book Council of Australia<br \/>\nCrighton Award for new talent in children&#8217;s book illustration for &#8216;Maya<br \/>\nand Cat&#8217;.

This is because both his<br \/>\nmother and father EVERY day would tell him to TIE his shoelaces. They would call out to him as he ran for the bus, &#8220;Tie Your Shoelaces&#8221;. He<br \/>\ndidn&#8217;t listen and NEVER tied his shoelaces.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial;\">This<br \/>\n had never been a problem to him until one day he was to meet Mr<br \/>\nWillbanks, who had the less than desirable job of cleaning the sewerage<br \/>\ndrains underground. When he entered each day he always posted a sign &#8220;DO<br \/>\n NOT ENTER&#8221;! Now Tim as it happened was walking along the path to school<br \/>\n as usual with his shoelaces flapping when he trod on one lace. He tripped<br \/>\nand slid into an open drain hole and into SEWER NUMBER 9. Now Mr<br \/>\nWillbanks was there, NOT just to clean and dodge rats, bats, lizards and snakes,<br \/>\nand cope with smells and sewerage. He was there to hunt for a very large<br \/>\n crocodile named Matilda!

Becky Culpepper has wonderful hair, but her parents who have to chase her out every day and call out &#8220;Becky Brush Your Hair&#8221;. So much so, that most people think that this is her name. Her Dad will implore her by saying &#8220;you&#8217;ll be mistaken for a bird&#8217;s nest&#8221;. She never listened so her hair remained &#8220;knit-knotting, twist-twirling&#8221; as she walks. But one day, something terrible did happen! It was Tim Mulligan who spotted the problem one morning while riding his bike. He exclaimed &#8220;Becky, you have two little birds in your hair&#8221;.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial;\">Becky tried everything to rid her hair of the birds, but nothing worked. Her teacher was not happy. Her teacher would exclaim &#8220;stop that cheap-chirping&#8221;. Eventually, she was sent to the Principal&#8217;s office.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial;\">Becky didn&#8217;t mind the birds or the cheep-chirping, nor did her friend Tim Mulligan, and strangely no-one else seemed to notice. <br \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial;\">But eventually, because it disturbed others, she felt she needed to be rid of them. But nothing seemed to get rid of them!! Worse still, more birds came! Middle-sized birds and then quite large birds.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial;\">What on earth could possibly make things worse? You&#8217;ll need to get the book to find out. Young readers aged up to 12 will enjoy this book. While the book is 80 pages, every page has wonderful drawings that take up at least 50% of the book. The images mean that even younger readers could be &#8216;stretched&#8217; by reading the books. The language used is no more than a Grade 5-6 level. \u00a0 <br \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial;\"><b>5. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com.au\/Down-Plot-Hole-Annaleise-Byrd\/dp\/1760659053\">&#8216;Down The Plot Hole&#8217;<\/a> by Annaleise Byrd<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial;\">Terry began to read the book before him, &#8220;The Complete Fairy tales of the Brother&#8217;s Grim&#8221;, but he suddenly stopped and exclaimed as he pointed to the book, &#8220;there&#8217;s a word missing&#8221;!!
