Read aloud: Pretty Pru


Pretty Pru is busy trying on her favorite red lipstick. Then comes Trumpty, her elephant friend asking for the lipstick so that he will be as pretty as Pru. Pru says "No!" and while she is busy prancing, she doesn't notice Trumpty takes her handbag full of make ups. When she notices her handbag is nowhere to be found, she asks help from her human friend, Tilly. They ask Hector the pig, Doodle the crocodile, and Tiptoe the rabbit, but none knows where Pru's handbag is. Finally they find Trumpty with Pru's handbag on his head and he looks so funny! They all laugh their hearts out except Pru. Pru is so angry with Trumpty but the anger subsides once Trumpty says sorry. Then Pru shares her favorite red lipstick with all her friends and they all look so pretty just like Pru. This book is good to discuss about sharing and the importance to ask before you use something that doesn't belong to you. We all love the illustrations too!
