All about Bookworms!
Have you ever seen a bookworm?
If you've ever been lucky enough to have spotted a real life bookworm, then you belong to a special group of people whose imagination extends far beyond the reaches of grown ups. You see, grown ups can't see bookworms. They are more occupied with the stranger things in life, like filling the dishwasher, tidying rooms and going to work.
But don't worry, if you haven't seen a bookworm yet, here's a few handy tips to help you on your way:
• You will often hear a bookworm before you see one. They talk and talk and talk all day long. It’s not surprising as their heads are so full of words and stories.
Keep your ears open and listen all around you for the arrival of a bookworm.
• It is not unusual for a bookworm to wear a watermelon for a hat, or sing to a potato, or leave a trail of broken television remote controls everywhere they go. You see, bookworms don't usually live in the human world. They get all sorts of everyday things mixed up.
Keep an eye out for a little wriggly creature behaving very strangely!
• Bookworms have trouble remembering people's names. They may often call you things like Noodle, Plink Plonk or Captain Sizzle. Bookworms also get their words all jumbled up, like Barty Fum and Mider Span.
When you see a bookworm, don't forget to introduce yourself slowly and just hope they remember your name!
