Vogler Burchett and Leighton Noyes: Gargoylz put on a show

"Da waren zwei Buben und die Gargoylz waren die Freunde. Sie sind nicht in die Klasse gegangen, weil sie draußen waren bei den Gargolyz. Da war eine Assembly und die haben das nicht mögen. Die Gargoylz sind immer von der Kirche weggelaufen. Dann sind sie zu den Buben gegangen. Sie haben gespielt. Sie haben eine Christmas Show gehabt und sie haben der 'woodcutter' sein wollen, aber sie haben nicht können. Die Frau Lehrerin hat gesagt, sie können der Wolf sein. Das war Red Riding Hood - Rotkäppchen."

Max and Ben are in the school play, and the Gargoylz are very excited. But will Ben remember his lines? Will the wolf costume be fierce
enough? And what happens when the Gargoylz decide they want starring roles too? The show must go on!

George spends most of his time with his friends Peachy (a gorilla) and Moon (a lion). Peachy and Moon are very boysy boys given to body-building and weight-lifting.

"Es geht um eine Spinne in einer Badewanne. Der Bub kann nicht baden gehen und die Mama hat vergessen, die Spinne herausnehmen, aus dem Bad. Dann nimmt die Mama das heraus und das ist das Ende. Die Geschichte ist lustig, weil das lustig ist, dass der Bub nicht baden gehen kann. Das Buch reimt sich und ich hab es lieber, wenn sich Bücher reimen."

Two complete books - Horrid Henry and the double-award-winning Horrid Henry's Stinkbomb - enhanced by Miranda Richardson's inspired reading and really horrid music and sound effects. Horrid Henry is dragged to a dance class, makes disgusting Glop with Moody Margaret, discovers he doesn't like camping and tries to get even with his brother Peter. A stinkbomb becomes a deadly weapon in Henry's war with Moody Margaret, he wins the school reading competition, goes for a sleepover and sees Miss Battle-Axe ticked off by the Head when he knows it was all his fault.

Postman Pat, the world's most famous postman and his black and white cat, Jess, deliver a fantastic package of fun and adventure in this great triple CD travel pack. This collection features recordings of the original Postman Pat television series along with "Postman Pat gets a pet"....

Ian Whybrow: Harry and the Bucketful of Dinosaurs

"Es gefällt mir schon, weil da Dinosaurier sind. 'Makes a splash' mag ich gerne. Das mag ich, weil das Wasser hat."
