I Was a Rat!
I Was a Rat! | Philip Pullman
5 posts | 9 read | 2 to read
I Was a Rat! So insists a scruffy boy named Roger. Maybe its true. But what is he now? A terrifying monster running wild in the sewers? The Daily Scourge is sure of it. A victim of Rodent Delusion? The hospital nurse says yes. A lucrative fairground freak? He is to Mr. Tapscrew. A champion wriggler and a budding thief? Thats what Billy thinks. Or just an ordinary small boy, though a little ratty in his habits? Only three people believe this version of the story. And it may take a royal interventionand a bit of magicto convince the rest of the world. Set against the backdrop of a Royal Weddingand a playful parody of the press, I Was a Rat! is a magical weaving of humor, fairy tale, and adventure.

📚 I still love this book and often read it to my Year 2 class. 🎶 Anything by Bruce! We did a lot of dancing to Born to Run in my family. 🎁 My baby turned one on Tuesday, I‘m so grateful for the healthy and happy year we have had together. Thank you @MegaWhoppingCosmicBookwyrm for the tag. Anyone still on Thursday want to play?! #thankfulthursday @Cosmos_Moon

Helen19 On a side note... how do I start a new line?! 4y
Mrs_B @Helen19 if you‘re on the iphone app, then press the “123” bottom left and then there‘s a return button bottom right. Does that help? 4y
Helen19 @Mrs_B Thank you! I have been wondering about this for ages! 4y

Mrs_B I just discovered by accident this week that you can double tap a post to like it! I wonder how many other tricks I‘m missing? 4y
Helen19 @Mrs_B I‘m having flashbacks to when I had to show my grandma how to use the space bar on her phone... uh-oh! 4y

Helen19 @kspenmoll Thank you so much. Definitely not how I planned to end maternity leave but working from home meant a little extra time with him so it‘s not all been bad 😊 (edited) 4y

All in all I really enjoyed The Secret Commonwealth (couple of small issues but will let those slide).... Not ready to leave Pullman yet and had this little tale unread on my shelves for a while 👍
