Alistair McAlistair has been crazy about his “Free the Whales” T-shirt since his mother got it for him. He has been wearing it all day and everyday until it has started to smell. Alistair’s mother had asked him repeatedly to take off his t-shirt to wash but he was adamant to keep it on.
The T-shirt grew more grimy and dirty as Alistair wore is everyday without taking it off to wash. He was afraid of losing his three best friends, the whales, which he gave names to.
After a lot of persuasion and having the Queen send in the army to his house, his mother managed to get him to remove his t-shirt to wash. What a surprise they had after the clean t-shirt came out of the wash. The three whales were missing!! In it’s place were the words “The whales are free”.
I found this story very entertaining and my boys loved doing the follow up aactivities. The topic on the importance of personal hygiene is also touched upon in this storybook. It can be used as a example read when focusing on keeping clean and hygienic.
This weekend I’m letting you in on one of my favourite haunts- WAHM-Articles Forum. Regular readers of this blog may have noticed that I have been taking part in many activites organised by that site.
