COMING UP ON STORY TIME SUNDAY
2/4 - The Tale of Tommy Kitten & Jemima Puddleduck, Sunday 9th December
The story of a mischievous young kitten and farmyard duck called Jemima Puddle-duck. She wants to hatch her own eggs, but the farmer's wife believes ducks make poor sitters and routinely confiscates their eggs to allow the hens to incubate them. Jemima tries to hide her eggs, but they are always found and carried away. She decides to set off along the road in her poke bonnet and shawl to find a safe place away from the farm to lay her eggs.
At the top of a hill, she spies a distant wood flies to it and waddles about until she discovers an appropriate nesting place among the foxgloves. However, a charming gentleman with "black prick ears and sandy-colored whiskers" persuades her to nest in a shed at his home. Can he be trusted, and what fate lies install for Jemima?
