Dear Reader…
Thank you for buying Snickety
Dickety Doo. I am sure that you will
enjoy reading it as much I enjoyed writing it.
I spent many hours thinking about the three children and their
characters, the characters of the planet bubbles and the adventures that would
happen in each country. I was excited to
write each adventure, and to dream up ways that the children could escape from
tricky situations.
Do you enjoy hiding secret things and then discovering them
again? You will love to discover the secret box and the planet
bubbles that spring to life when you say Snickety
Dickety Doo. Just imagine yourself
being transported in a bubble to all sorts of amazing places around the world,
learning about each country and getting to explore parts of it.
I hope that you can relate to one of the three children, and
that you enjoy a snippet of my childhood and how I grew up with my
brothers. You will also get an idea of
what my parents were like. Even if you don’t have any brothers or sisters, you
can pretend you are one of the three children and that you do!
When the children get into trouble, I hope you feel
butterflies in your stomach as you wonder how they are going to get home
again. Their parents never know when
they go off on their adventures, it is all quite secretive. What would your parents say if they knew you
were suddenly transported to the other side of the world? Would they be worried if you were in danger?
Whether you know it or not you are also learning about
different cultures as you read, like different types of money, food, landscapes
and people. I have travelled to over 20
countries, and each one is amazing to explore, and also very different. I sincerely hope you get the opportunity to
travel in your lifetime.
Love, Danica-Lea Larcombe
PS: You will also learn that each planet in the sky has a
different character too!
