Pens Special: Starting School

Squiggle and Splodge, the youngest of the Pens characters, are due to start school and Splodge is nervous, and is hiding under the bed covers. With the encouragement of the other Pens, especially Charlotte, who explains that God, their SPECIAL FRIEND, will go with them to school and will help them not to be scared, Splodge finds the courage to go – and has a wonderful day. Three new characters are introduced – the teacher, Miss Fountain Pen, and two new pupils, Rowena Rollerball and Henry Highlighter, who are both starting school on the same day as Squiggle and Splodge.This new Pens story concludes with five days of Bible readings based on the story of David and Goliath.
