He was the only one. The others gobbled up the ‘human beans’. When Sophie found out about this, they had to save the ‘chidlers’.

| The giant postman by Sally Grindley I like this book because it has big writing so I can read it well. Everybody was frightened of the giant postman. But a kid called Billy was not. The kid wrote a letter to the giant postman. The kid knocked on the postman’s door in the woods. The postman opened up the letter and read it. Billy went back to his house. The postman wrote a letter to Billy saying that he did not mean to frighten the people. It was his birthday that day. They made a party for the postman and they decorated the street. They also made cards and a cake and had a band for the postman. By Jasmine Jury |
