Granny McFlitter: A Country Yarn

06 June 2019

Another story about our favourite Granny. This book has a great rhythm for reading aloud. The children enjoyed listening for the rhyming words and joining in with the repeated phrase- But did Granny stop knitting?. Oh no, she did not! She kept right on knitting… LIKE IT OR NO! They were amazed at what Granny McFlitter was able to knit and enjoyed exploring the pictures.
