Henry's Cage - URGENT HELP PLEASE!

6 replies

swedishmum · 07/09/2005 20:52

DS (8) has just come down saying he's scared because teacher read a story called Henry's Cage (won a children's lit award he says). From what he says it hardly sounds 8 year old stuff but would like a few facts before speaking to teacher.

Tried to google but no luck so wondering if he's being quite truthful or if it has another title.

All help gratefully appreciated. Will carry on googling now.
Thanks.

There was a story on a Richard & judy thing that was written by Graham Denney called Henry's Cage

If you google Henry's cage in quotes you get a link. But the link goes no-where

Thanks for looking everyone. Something about a man who is 13 feet tall and goes round looking for people's pets... all sounds a bit far fetched to me but he is adamant - I said he'd look a bit silly if he was making it up and I spoke to the teacher. He even said he had copy of it (or some of it) in his tray at school about 18 pages long. I think there's something in his fear because he couldn't keep an elaborate plan going for so long and would eventually own up! I'll find out tomorrow I suppose.
Thanks again.
