Funny Bones" we are taught to call our elbows if they're bumped. I did it this morning. I called out "Funny Bone" and the pain soon fox trotted off. Some rituals are worth not forgetting. They're the spells, like kisses, which work. The pictures in the story are all based in dark places. Investigate light and different light sources. Funny bones by Janet and Allan Ahlberg is one of my most favorite childhood books!! The book is about…”a big skeleton…a little skeleton…and a dog skeleton…” one night all three were bored in bed and decided to go outside to “scare somebody”. The story goes on, the skeletons walk past the houses on the street, and the shops, and past the zoo, and past the police station and finally go to the park where they look for someone to scare!

A BBC video, entitled, Funnybones – Bumps in the Night (Cat. No. BBCV 4871), which contained all twelve episodes, was released soon after the series ended, but this is now out of print. The VHS tape was also released in Bulgaria and Australia, respectively by the companies Proxima Entertainment and ABC Video (but in the former case, it was dubbed into Bulgarian). Allan Ahlberg has published over 100 children's books and with his late wife Janet, created many award-winning children's picture books. When using this book in placement in Year 2, all children joined in and sang along. They all enjoyed singing as there were a lot of rhyming and repetition words.During the remainder of their adventure, they take a trip to the zoo and continue to hunt for some people to scare. As the night draws on, they come to the conclusion that everyone’s in bed so they decide to scare one another! Create a character profile for each of the skeletons. What are their real names? What are their personalities like? What are their favourite things?
