The animal friends play traditional games like their parents used to play. Each book tells the story of a game. We share the fun, read the words, colour the pictures. We will surely want to play the games with our friends, too, in the playground or at home.
The animals meet in the wood. "What shall we play today?" they ask. "Grandmother's Footsteps!" says Bear. "And rll be it. Nobody is more alert than I am. rll stand here. You try to creep up and touch me. If I turn round and see you move, rll send you to the back." "Oohh, yes!" say the others, excitedly. They all think they will be able to sneak up on Granny Bear without her noticing.
