Thank you to Sally for sharing this blog post on a wonderful children’s book. It takes the classic fairy tale of Humpty Dumpty, and looks at what happened next. That ‘next’ is a story of Humpty’s mending and resilience. It’s a tale that needs to be told. Today’s children need to hear this.
I will be posting some of the best new children’s books over the next few weeks.
Since this series began in January 2018 there have been over 1100 Posts from Your Archives where bloggers have taken the opportunity to share posts to a new audience… mine.
The topics have ranged from travel, childhood, recipes, history, family and the most recent series was #PotLuck where I shared a random selection of different topics. This series is along the same lines… but is a ‘Lucky Dip’
In this series I will be sharing posts from the first six months of 2021 and on occasion I might dip into months either side to share gems. Submissions are now closed but there will be another series in January 2022.
This is the first post from Jennie Fitzkee and in this post Jennie shares the book What Happened After His Fall? by Dan Santat... following the accident suffered by Humpty Dumpty and the life lesson it offered to the children…

Thanks Jacqui xx

I’ve been discussing Humpty Dumpty with my kindergarteners all this week 😃
Wonderful! This book will help with talking about fear and bravery. Kids need to talk about their worries.
Thanks for boosting the post Jennie and for permitting me to share..♥
My pleasure, Sally!
Shared on Twitter, Jennie.
Best wishes, Pete.
Thanks so much, Pete.
An excellent post for sharing!
Thank you, Liz!
You’re welcome, Jennie!
A great share 🙂 x
Thanks, Carol!
Great post! I commented on Sally’s blog, too, but I’ll repeat it here>
What a terrific book! Stories like this are the reason I write fairy tales. I’ve never understood why some think they’re something you outgrow. When done properly, they’re highly relevant, IMO. : )
And now I have a new book to buy…
Hear, hear! Thank you, Cathleen.
