It's hilarious really...went for PT consultation yesterday, and got presented with his books to have a look through afterwards.

Literacy book was a revelation. He's done some great pictures but the stories are mainly completely untrue!!

it's meant to be 'news' and I think he must feel his life is so dull, he has to just make it up

First of all I had a little double take at 'Our car blew up' though it was a lovely pic of our nice car.

Then it was 'We went to the Christmas fair (Like hell we did) and there was a big wheel (yes, ahem) and giant hamsters. Although he tells me it was meant to say 'hammers'- even more

He had drawn giant orange things next to a diminutive ferris wheel...obviously..

He gets comments like 'how lovely' and 'very good work' but I am feeling it is a matter of time before he gives them something like 'mummy's boyfriend makes me eat soap' or some such monstrous untruth.

Anyone else?
