Mattland

Matt has moved to a new neighbourhood and is not happy. Using things such as rocks and mud, Matt uses his creative thoughts to give birth to "Mattland." As he builds, a girl joins him, and their land expands further. Finally, when their creation is threatened, more children from the neighbourhood come to the rescue.
This is written by Hazel Hutchins who came to visit us at Fenside last year.

Buttercup's Lovely Day

What kind of day is Buttercup having? Grass at her knees, the buzz of bees, that kind of day. Enjoy this celebration of farm life.

The pictures were drawn by Andrea Beck who visited Fenside in October and showed us all ho to draw

Stanley at Sea

You have danced at Stanley’s party, laughed at his wild ride; now join him as he sets out to sea with his usual band of trusty friends. Will they find what they seek? Where is the end to Outside?

Eliot Jones, Superhero

By day, Eliot leads a quiet life. He reads books, feeds his goldfish and watches his neighbour wash a car. But by night, Eliot Jones is a Superhero. Never sure just who will need his help, Eliot is ready for any possibility.

Chester
