Class novel – Extra Yarn

Wednesday 03 June 2026

We have been reading Extra Yarn by Mac Bennett. It links to our new Design and Technology topic and is also a story with a powerful message about kindness. We’ve been talking about the characters and describing them. We also wrote some sentences about them. We are not fans of the archduke!

Annabelle is brave, positive and kind. She did not care about the money when the archduke tried to buy it.

He is not sweet and definitely not good.

Help at home by describing the characters in books you read together. Who is your favourite? Who do you not like? Why?
