Does anyone have "Q Pootle 5 in space" by Nick Butterworth? (odd request!)

Hello

I bought DS Q Pootle 5 in space from the library withdrawn book sale.

He LOVES it.

One problem.... I am fairly certain that when the library tore out the cover page in preparation for selling it, they also tore out at least one page of the story.

DS doesn;t seem to mind but I would like to start at the beginning of the story.

So if anyone has this book please could you post the first page or two so I can print it out and stick it in our copy to read it to DS?

Ta muchly

I will - but I can't get at the book because my ds is asleep in front of his bookshelf. I'll do it tomorrow evening if nobody else has before that!

You can have my book if you like!

Thanks v much everyone!

The first line I have in our book is "The bladder monsters are having fun. But QPootle% and Oopsy don;t like games like this. Not ones where they can get eaten"

This does not seem like the first line of the story to me, so if it is please accept my apologies! DS loves this story so much. Must've read it 20 times so far in a few days!

You are just missing one page then-it has a picture of the bladder monsters flying after them and the words are:

Q Pootle 5 is in a hurry. And so is his friend Oopsy. They were playing hide and seek but they have been found by three hungry bladder monsters.

opps, didn't see it was the In Space.
Don't have that one so can't scan and e-mail.

Thanks v much, appreciate having the start of the story.

Will write that down to add to the book. DS seems to have memorised most of the book already so he may object when I try to add the fist page!

I bought the book as we have a lot of Nick Butterworth and DS loves them bust I find the story a bit odd... What is QPootle5 (ie the not "in space" one, although presumably still in space?)

Thanks again.

Q Pootle 5

Thanks CS

QPootle5 looks great, will look out for it in the charity shops and library sales (is amazining how many great and often barely read books I manage to get)

DS loves Percy the Park keeper and Albert le Blanc, plus the Great pet sale or is that Mike Inkpen?)
