We have been reading The Lost Happy Endings by Carol Ann Duffy and Jane Ray. All the children have been gripped by the story and the beautiful illustrations. There have been groans of frustration when the days reading has finished on another cliff edge. What's going to happen next? How will it end?

Before we started to read the book we asked the children to write their predictions of how the story will unfold based on the cover pictures and the 'blurb' on the back.

Here is a selection of those predictions.

Was your prediction right?

Were you close or miles off?

Was your story better than the authors?
