Cheeky is a very friendly and adventurous little robin. Every day he flies into the garden of a small girl, called Jane. She always recognizes Cheeky from the way he lifts his head to sing, puffing out his deep red breast, and rustling his olive-brown feathers. As soon as Jane sees him, she runs out with food and sometimes he hops right on to her hand to eat it.
But there is someone who doesn’t like him in the garden at all and wants to get rid of him. Who could that possibly be? Who would want to harm a little robin?
Then one day there was no Cheeky in the garden, or the next day, or the next. Jane knew something must have happened to him. It was a big mystery, where was he? What was he doing? Was he safe, or had some big animal eaten him up? Read the book and find out what really happened to the little robin.
John had lots of friends at school, but at home he often felt very lonely as he had no brothers or sisters. Most of his friends had pets, but John’s mum and dad wouldn’t allow them in their home.
One day John’s friend Pete had to go to the farm for his mum and John went with him. While they were there the farmer showed them his hens with their new-born chicks. The farmer saw John loved them and gave him two little chicks as a present. Without thinking what his mum would say, John took them home in a little box.
John’s mum was very, very cross with him and told him to put the chicks in the kitchen for the night and take them back to the farm in the morning. John was so miserable. He really wanted to keep them but during the night something happened that changed everything. I wonder what it was – you’ll have to read the book to find out!
My beautifully illustrated children’s book, The Cheeky Robin, is about a friendly and adventurous little robin.
