This is the story of three siblings who are different jungle animals each with unique characteristics. Joshua the jaguar, Tim the tiger, and Jessica the giraffe. They were playing one day in the jungle when Josh had an idea about calling all the animals together for a race. They begin to find participants wherever they go and the excitement grows. Everything is building until the snake appears casting his spell of fear boasting his win. Josh and Tim pay no attention to his chatter and during the race just playfully run in and out of the snake who has formed a wheel by holding his tale and spinning down the track. The boys take off and win when the snake hisses back at them and his wheel flattens out crashing in the middle of the race. The moral that is learned by all is about what one hears and believes which opens the door to true freedom in the lives of children.
The village of Parliament has a colourful history of conflict, great oratory, wit and repartee, strange customs and larger-than-life characters, and this rich and entertaining miscellany embraces them all. On his enthralling textual tour, Robert Rogers, the Clerk of the House of Commons, looks not only at the memorable and often fiery politicians who have dominated the House over the centuries, but also at the historic building itself and the distinctive characteristics that make it so endlessly fascinating. Here too are all the famous clashes, rivalries and great events of parliamentary history, such as the fire in 1834 that destroyed the medieval buildings, the dramatic attempts to blow up and bomb Parliament, and the Prime Minister who was assassinated while he walked along its corridors. Although it's the great affairs of state that take centre stage, the book contains many odd and intriguing details, from the weight of Big Ben and what is in the dispatch boxes, to what a 'parliament heel' is and the whereabouts of the peregrine falcons' nest. As entertaining as it is informative, and written with the unique knowledge of an insider, this is an indispensable collection.
