Kit's Birthday, His Way (Aurorasauras & Artie Bear, Book 28)

Aurorasauras & Artie Bear, Book 28 by Paul Rawly

As Kit's birthday approaches, his mum Hannah spreads picture cards on the table: a big gathering, a small visit or a trip out. Kit touches the small visit, and chooses who will come: Aurorasauras, Artie Bear, Pip and Polly. Trevor makes a simple plan of visitors, garden, lunch and cake, and Kit puts the cards in a row.

Pip gives Kit a small blue watering can, because he knows Kit likes watching things grow. Together the friends plant seeds in a trough, make a pebble path and a twig bridge, and Kit chooses one yellow flag at a time. At cake time, Kit picks the quiet picture instead of singing, and blows out his single candle while his friends watch.

A warm, inclusive story about choices, patience and celebrating in your own way.

The story is followed by 10 activity pages with story questions, feelings prompts and drawing spaces to share together. For children aged 3 to 7.
