The Something

 

During our English lessons, we are looking at a book called 'The Something'. The children discovered a hole in the FS2 garden and have been guessing what might be down it.

 

The Something 

Underneath the cherry tree in our garden there is a little hole. I'm sure there is something down there . . .

When a little boy's ball disappears down a mysterious hole in the garden, he can't stop thinking about what could be down there. Could it be a little mouse's house? The lair of a hungry troll? Or maybe even a dragon's den? Whatever the something is, he is determined to find out!
