A Very Curious Caterpillar Charlie’s Big Day
Get out of my head Janet said to the idea that was milling around. It felt like a caterpillar wriggling about in her ear.
As the idea slipped silently into Janet’s pen a story appeared on the page and the curious caterpillar disappeared.

Janet worked on the story before typing it into her I-pad and moving the words around without wasting any more paper.
Very soon ten stories were written and sent to Janet’s artist friend Sally, who illustrated them with beautiful pictures. With her new book now in the shops Janet has other ideas brewing and the caterpillar is reading Candlelight Tales. His curiosity will be rewarded as he meets; Joshua the jolly jellyphant with his amazing rainbow coloured skin.
Jessie a little girl making delicious jam. Henry a hippo with a bad tooth who refuses to go to the dentist.
Geoffrey with his head stuck in a tree and the owl who came to his rescue. Homer a pigeon getting lost in a race.
Joey a kangaroo who loses his bounce gets a new one after visiting the doctor. A witch making magic in The Odd Box.
Tommy’s tortoise reveals a secret surprise. Ollie an anxious boy overcoming his fears. And Bella and Thunder two friendly giants.
After reading all ten tales the very curious caterpillar could not resist taking a sneak peek at the new story Janet is writing.
The Anderson Family’s Big Circus Adventure, tells the tale of an ordinary family who spend an amazing summer working in a circus. Curiosity has now got the better of him so the caterpillar will hang about until he has chance to finish reading this exciting story.
