The Silly Spaghetti Scare
Written by
Illustrated by
Join Oliver and Isabella as they chat about a funny storybook they are interested in!
Oliver: Hey, Isabella, how are you? I have to tell you about this storybook I just got, ‘The Silly Spaghetti Scare’, it’s so amusing, I love it!
Isabela: Hi, Oliver! I’m fine. Oh, I’ve seen that book around in the library! Is it the one where the spaghetti suddenly comes to life? And, it causes a lot of trouble all over the place?
Oliver: Exactly! There’s this bit where the spaghetti ties the shoelaces of everyone in the town together, and they all end up tripping over. I couldn’t stop laughing! And then there’s another part where the people organise a grand spaghetti festival!
Isabela: That sounds like a hilarious story! I heard about a scene where the spaghetti sneaks into a hair salon and disguises itself as someone’s hair. Is that actually in the book?
Oliver: Yes! And a lady ends up with a spaghetti hairdo, walking around town with a head full of noodles!
Isabela: Hahaha, oh my goodness! I have to read this! It sounds very entertaining. I’ll get it from the library tomorrow, and I’m really looking forward to diving into all those spaghetti adventures! Thanks for telling me about this, Oliver.
Oliver: You’re welcome! I think you’ll love it, too!
