Do you remember Pookie books?
Pookie sprang from the imagination of Ivy Wallace while she working on a switchboard during the war. In 1945 she took Pookie's first adventure to Wm Collins and not only was Pookie put into print but Ivy Wallace and William Collins her publisher were married in 1950.
These books belong to my brothers...
being the youngest girl I tended to get everything handed down to me...
which in turn means that when it comes to being all grow'd up all these things are snatched up by the original owners...
however if I whisper.. and you promise not to tell.. I will show them to you ... don't tell them I have them... or they want them back!
This is Jonathan's book (he's my middle brother)
Pookie at the Seaside
Pookie had silly little wings and was teased by everyone...
So he set off to seek his fortune
He had lots of adventures and then was lost in a snowstorm, but Belinda saved him and kissed his little wings...
with this they grew into beautiful big wings and then he could fly...
He lives with Belinda in Bluebell wood...

Pookie is asleep and Belinda is spring cleaning... he doesn't want to get up... if I were that cosy I wouldn't want to get up either...
I love the pictures...Belinda is trying to spring clean... and Pookie is being a naughty rabbit
Belinda tells him to go and come back once he can say sorry!
Pookie finds everyone in bad moods and bickering with each other as they are all spring cleaning so he decides to lead them to the seaside... for a break!
sounds good to me...
lead on Pookie!
They have fun playing on the beach...
These are the other books in the series so I will start looking for the others I think...
Tomorrow perhaps I will show you the butterfly ball!
Family update!
I bought Danny man a train track at the last car boot...
and Jamie has had as much fun building and playing with it as Danny has...
It even has a cannon that blasts a Duplo character into the air!
Its still being played with ... and was the best £15 I have spent in ages!
well I hope the weather is better where you are..
its a grey and rainy day and I feel like poo!
to be honest I would be happy curling up on the settee with my crochet...
but I don't think Danny is going to be happy with this arrangement,
even while he's got a cold he doesn't stop!
Never mind
Onward and upward!
take care
