Online Storytime: Sometimes I Curl Up in a Ball

Sometimes I Like to curl up in a ball by Vicki Churchill and Charles Fuge
Little Wombat loves to do so many different things. He likes to jump as high as he can, scream out loud, walk round and round and sometimes stand up tall as still as can be. But at the end of the day when the sun goes down, all Wombat wants to do is find somewhere cosy to sleep.
This book is easy to read and follow. The pictures are fun, bright and full of adventure. The text uses repeated phrases eg “Sometimes I like – “. This builds familiarity, prediction and anticipation.
The adorable wombat sparks interest for the reader as children can relate to his actions such as pulling funny faces, walking round and round, jumping high and screaming loud. The book's theme invites the reader to think about their own emotions, fostering self-awareness and empathy.
