KS3 LRC Book Recommendation - Worzel Gummidge by Barbara Euphan Todd
As the brand new television adaptation of Todd’s iconic children’s novel hits the nation’s screens, what better time to reacquaint yourself with everybody’s favourite sentient scarecrow? Oozing period charm and good old-fashioned storytelling, Worzel Gummidgeis a rollicking yarn full of fun and mischief to entrance younger readers.
When John and Susan see the scarecrow standing in the middle of a field in the pouring rain, he doesn't look that remarkable. Just like any other scarecrow really. But when he turns up at the cottage to warm himself by the fire, they realize that this is a very special scarecrow indeed.
The scarecrow's name is Worzel Gummidge, and he's about to fill the children's world with fun and magic. This welcome new edition of a classic and much-loved story is being published just in time for Worzel's return to our TV screens.
