Advantages: A little boy overcomes his fears
Disadvantages: a bit outdated

.../> The story begins with Alfie finding a letter with his name on it. He is nursery age so that's pretty good of him to point out to his mum that the letter is for him.
Mum explains that it is an invitation to his friend, Bernard's party, and Alfie starts to get excited.
The day of the party arrives and Alfie is excited as mum bathes him and talks about what happens at birthday parties. He puts on his new clothes and then reality hits ...

Alfie finds his old comfort blanket and waits downstairs for mum…what a sorry figure he cuts in the picture as he sits on lfie "But do you know what it did then?"
Oh my goodness, he threw the crayons in the air and then got into trouble from his mum while Alfie stood looking sorrowful.
They play with the bubbles and Bernard is in trouble for pushing, and is REALLY in trouble for bursting the ... more

Alfie Gives A Hand - Shirley Hughes

Advantages: Nice Story With Detailed Illustrations.
Disadvantages: None

...The Story ======== Alfie is very excited, he has been invited to his best friends birthday party and he has never been to a party before. Mum tells him all about parties how you take a present, games he would play and all about the delicious party food. Alfie was a little nervous about the party especially when he realised Mum and Annie Rose (his baby Sister) would not be there. He decided to take his blanket and held on to it very tightly. When ...
...sang Happy Birthday to Bernard. Alfie still clung tightly to his blanket. Bernard blew his lemonade through his straw and made rude noises. He blew his jelly all over the place until Mum took it off him. After tea they played games. Bernard put a tiger mask on and made growling noises; Min was frightened and began to cry. Min clung on to Alfie. She cried and cried until Alfie was very brave and put his blanket down and held Mins hand. Min stopped ...

Seagulls, sand and sandwiches.

Advantages: Lovely pictures, familiar cosy scenario.
Disadvantages: Not as engaging as the Alfie stories.

books so readable for adults and so interesting for children to discuss with their parents. This book is not as long or as detailed as some of the other Shirley Hughes books. It does not explore relationships in the way that say 'Dogger' or 'Alfie Gives a Hand' do and it does not challenge children to consider the unfamiliar or frightening (except perhaps for the wasps). However, it is a super read for younger children, and it has marvellous pictures which really draw a child in to a situation and invite him or her to enjoy making close observations and comparisons with their own seaside experiences. This is definitely a reassuring story for small children to relax with at the end of a long and tiring day. And by the way, which of us has not ended a long and tiring day at the seaside as Lucy and Tom do? But I?m not telling you how, that ...
