Kipper went into
Chip
’
s room and picked up
the magic key. The key began to glow.
“
Oh
help!
”
said Kipper. Kipper
ran outside and looked for Biff and
Chip.
“
Help!
”
he called.
“
The key is
glowing.
”
Biff
and Chip were playing with Wilf and Wilma. They
were playing in the sandpit.
“
Look at the magic
key,
”
called
Kipper.
Biff was cross with
Kipper.
“
Come on
everyone,
”
she yelled.
“

house.
”
It
was too late. The magic
began to
work. The children got smaller
and smaller. The children
were in the
grass and everything looked big. The grass was
like a jungle.
“
What big
flowers!
”
said Kipper. Chip
saw a bumble-bee. He didn
’
t
like it and he didn
’
t
like the jungle.
“
Let
’
s
get out of here,
”
he called.
The children came out of the jungle. They
came to a mountain.
“
What a big
mountain!
”
said Wilf. Chip
began to climb. He wanted to get to the top.
“
Come
on,
”
he said.
“
let
’
s
climb up.
”
The
children got to the top. Kipper was
hot.
“
I
don
’
t like climbing
mountains,
”
he
said.
The children looked at
the sand.
“
It looks like a
desert,
”
said Biff.
“
Let
’
s
go down.
”
“
Oh
no!
”
said Kipper.
“
Look at the toy
car,
”
said Wilma.
“
Let
’
s
get inside and ride down. We can ride down to
the
desert.
”
Whoosh! The car took
them down the mountain.
“
This is
fun,
”
said Wilma. The car
stopped in the sand. The children climbed out.
“
Oh
no!
”
said Wilf.
“
Look at that big
cat.
”
The children climbed
inside a bottle. Kipper was frightened.
“
I
don
’
t like
this,
”
he cat looked inside
the bottle. It pushed it with its paw.
“
Go
away,
cat,
”
shouted
Kipper.
“
Shoo!
”
everyone
yelled.
Floppy
chased
the
car
away.
The
children climbed out of the
bottle.
“
Good old
Floppy!
”
said
Biff.
They walked over the
desert. Everyone felt hot. Everyone felt very hot.
“
I want a
drink,
”
said
Kipper.
“
Look!
”
said
Wilf.
“
Giant
strawberries!
”
The
children
ran
to
eat
them.
“

strawberries,
”
said Chip.
“
So do
I,
”
said Wilf. The children
ate the strawberries. They pulled
off
big lumps. Kipper licked his
lips.
“
I like this adventure
now,
”
he said.
It began to rain.
“
What big
drops!
”
said Wilma.
“
I feel sick
now,
”
said Kipper.
“
So do
I,
”
said Chip.
The children ran to a giant flowerpot. They hid
under it. The key began to glow.
The
magic was over.
“
I
can
’
t
see,
”
said Chip. He had the
flowerpot on his head.
“
I
like the
hat,
”
said Wilma.
Dad looked at
his strawberries.
“
I
don

t
know,
”
he said.
“
There must be giant slugs
round
here.
”

Kipper and the
Giant
Kipper was watching
television. He was watching a programme called
“
The Angry
Giant
”
. He
liked
the programme. The angry giant lived in a castle
near a village. Nobody in the village liked
the giant. He was always cross. When
the giant was cross he stamped his feed and the
houses
shook.
“
Oh
on!
”
everyone said.
“
He
’
s
cross again. He
’
s always
cross.
”
Kipper went to
find
Chip
but
he
was
out.
He
picked
up
the
magic
key
and
it
began
to
glow.
“
Ooh!
”
said
Kipper. He ran to get
Biff but she was out with Chip. The magic began to
work. It took Kipper
inside the magic
house.
The magic took Kipper to
the gate of the giant
’
s
castle. Kipper was frightened. He saw a
signpost. It pointed to the village. He
didn
’
t want to meet the
giant, so he went to the village.
Kipper came to the village but it was
tiny. Kipper was a giant.
“
Oh
no!
”
said Kipper.
“
Go
away,
”
yelled
the
people.
“
We
don
’
t
want
you.
We
’
ve

another
one.
”
The
people
threw
things
at
Kipper.
“
Go
away,
”
they
yelled.
“
We
don
’
t
want another giant. We
don
’
t want
you.
”
“
Stop
it,
”
shouted Kipper.
“
I
’
m
not a giant.
I
’
m
a boy.
”
The people said,
“
Well, you look like a
giant.
”
Kipper began to cry.
“
I
’
m
not a giant,
”
he
said.
“
I
’
m a
little boy and I don
’
t like
this adventure.
”
“
Giants
don
’
t
cry,
”
said the
people.
“
Perhaps he is a
little boy but he looks like a giant to us.
Perhaps he can
help
us.
”
Kipper
helped
the
villagers
to
mend
their
houses.
He
put
back
the
broken
roofs.
“
Good old
Kipper,
”
everyone said.
“
The giant threw this big
stone at us,
”
said the
people.
“
We
don
’
t want it here. Can you
put it outside the village?
”
“
Yes,
”
said Kipper,
“
I
’
ll
try.
”
He picked
up the stone and took it outside the village.
“
Good old
Kipper!
”
everyone
called.
All the people
liked Kipper.
“
Thank
you,
”
they said.
“
You have helped us a
lot.
”
The
village
band played for him. The giant came back. He was
very angry when he saw Kipper in the
village.
“
I
’
m
the giant here,
”
he shouted.
He ran towards the village. Crash! He fell over
the stone.
“
Ouch!
”
he yelled. The people were frightened
but Kipper went to help the giant. He picked
up the giant
’
s
things and put a bandage round his head. Kipper
was bigger than the giant.
“
Be
a
good
giant,
”
said
Kipper.
“
Stop
being
angry
and
the
people
will
like
you.
”
So
the
giant
stopped
being
angry.
“
I
’
ll
try
to
be
good,
”
he
said.
“
Hooray!
”
shouted
the
people.
“
Let
’
s
have a party!
”
The key began
to glow.
“
It
’
s
time for me to go now,
”
said
Kipper.
“
Goodbye. Thank you
for the party.
”
The magic
took Kipper home.
“
Nobody
likes an angry
giant,
”
said
Kipper.
“
What an
adventure!

6-3 The Outing
A
bus came to the school. The children climbed in.
“
I like going
out,
”
said Wilf.
“
Don
’
t
push,
”
said Mrs
May. The bus set off.
“
Hoora
y!
”
shouted the children.
“
We
’
re
going to
the
zoo.
”
“
Don
’
t
shout,children,
”
said Mrs
May. Biff sat with Chip. Wilf sat with Nadim.
“
This is
fun,
”
shouted Nadim.
“
It is if you
don
’
t
shout,
”
said Mrs May. The
bus stopped
on the way. The children
climbed out. Some children looked at the water.
Some children went to
the toilet.
“
Don
’
t
run away,
”
said Mrs May,
“
and
don
’
t go too near the
water.
”
Wilf
kicked a stone and his shoe came off.
The shoe landed in the water with a splash.
“
Oh
Wilf!
”
said Biff.
Wilf couldn
’
t get his shoe.
He told Mrs May about it.
“
What a silly thing to
do!
”
she said.
“
I
don
’
t know what we can
do.
”
When they got to the zoo it began to
rain. The children climbed out of the bus and Mrs
May
went to get the tickets. Nadim
wanted to see the elephants. Wilf wanted to see
the lions and Biff
wanted to see the
crocodiles.
“
I hope the rain
stops,
”
said Mrs May. It
rained and rained. The
children were
fed up. The animals were fed up too.
“
Don
’
t
get wet,
”
said Mrs May. The
rain
didn
’
t stop
so the children climbed back on the bus.
“
Can we go to the
museum?
”
asked
Nadim.
“
What a
good idea!
”
said Mrs May.
They went to the museum.
“
This is
good,
”
said Wilf.
“
We can see dinosaurs
here.
”
“
I like
dinosaurs,
”
said
Nadim. They began to run towards the dinosaurs.
“
Don
’
t
run,
”
called Mrs
May.
“
The
dinosaurs won
’
t go
away.
”
They looked at a big
dinosaur.
“
What is this one
called?
”
asked
Wilf.
“
I
don
’
t know
yet,
”
said Nadim.
“
Let
’
s
go and see.
”
Biff had her
camera. She took a photograph of the
dinosaur.
“
What is it
called?
”
she asked.
“
It

s

apatosaurus,
”
said
Nadim. The children went into a room. A lady told
them about dinosaurs and
showed them
some pictures.
“
I know what
that one is called,
”
said
Nadim.
“
It
’
s
called an
apatosaurus.
”
“
Good,
Nadim,
”
said Mrs may. The
children went to the shop. Wilf got a book
about dinosaurs. Nadim got a model to
make. It was a model of an apatosaurus.
“
I can make it
at
home,
”
he said. Chip said,
“
Come to our house. We can
help you.
”
The bus got back to school. It was time
to go home.
“
Thank
you,
”
said the children.
“
Thank
you for a
lovely day.
”
“
Goodbye, Mrs
May,
”
said Nadim.
“
Can we draw dinosaurs
tomorrow?
”
What a
good idea!
”
said Mrs May.
Nadim and Wilf went home with Biff and
Chip. They went to
Chip
’
s room and began to
make the model. The magic key began to glow.
Biff ran to the box and picked it up.
“
Come
on,
”
she called.
“
It
’
s
time for a magic
adventure.
”
“
Come on
Nadim,
”
called Chip.
“
We
’
re
going on a magic adventure.
“
We
’
re
going to the land of the
dinosaurs.
”
6-4
Land of the
Dinosaurs
“We are going on a
magic adventure,”said Chip. The children went
through the door of the
magic house.
“Oh help!”said Nadim. The magic took the children
to the land of th
e dinosaurs.
“I
don’t
want
this
adventure,”said
Nadim.
“I
don’t
want
to
meet
a
dinosaur.”
A
dragonfly flew by. “Look at this,”said
Chip. “It’s a giant dragonfly. What a big one!”
Chip
found
a
footprint.
It
was
a
giant
footprint.
“Come
and
look,”
said
Chip.
“It
must
be
a
dinosaur’s
footprint.”
Biff
took
a
photograph
of
the
giant
footprint.
“I
can
take
this
photograph to school,”
she said. Nadim found some eggs. They were big
eggs. “They must be
a dinosaur’s eggs,”
he said. One of the eggs began to crack. “It’s
going to hatch out,”

-
said Biff.
Something
came out
of
the
egg.
“It’s
a
little
dinosaur,” said
Nadim.
Something
flew by. The children were frightened.
“What is it?” asked Chip. “I don’t know,” said
Biff.
The
children
ran.
“It’s
a
flying
dinosaur,”
said
Nadim,
“and
it’s
a
big
one.
Come
on,
let’s hide.” The flying dinosaur flew
down to the eggs. It picked up the little dinosaur
in its
teeth. “Oh no!” said Biff. “It’s
going to eat it.” She picked up a stick and ran
out. “Go
away!” she yelled. The
dinosaur flew away but Chip was cross with Biff.
“You were silly,” he
said. “It could
have got you.”
Wilf ran on
and climbed a hill. He wanted to look for an
apatosaurus. “Come up here Biff,” he
called. “You can take a photograph.”
Wilf had not climbed on a hill. He
had
climbed on a
dinosaur and it was
enormous. It looked round at Wilf. Wilf was
frightened. “Oh help!” he
said.
He
jumped
down
and
ran.
“Let’s
get
out
of
here,”
he
called.
“Don’t
be
frightened,” said Chip. “It’s an
apatosaurus. It’s like the one in the museum. It
won’t
hurt us.” Biff took a photograph
of it. “What a long neck it’s got and what a long
tail!” she
said.
“I
need
a
bigger
camera.”
The
apatosaurus
ran
into
the
water.
“What
an
enormous
splash!”
said
Wilf.
Nadim
looked
frightened.
“Oh
help!”
he
c
alled.
Another
dinosaur
was
coming
and
it
looked
very
fierce.
“Let’s
get
out
of
here,”
yelled
Chip.
Biff
took
a
photograph. “Come on,”
yelled Chip, “don’t stop for that. This one could
eat us!” They
began to ran away. Wilf’s
other shoe cane off in the mud.
Suddenly, the magic key began to
glow.
“Just in time!”said Chip. The magic took the
children to Biff’s bedroom. “What an
adventure!” said Biff. “I’ve got some
good photographs.” “This is the fierce dinosaur,”
said Chip. “Did you take its
photograph?” “Yes,” said Biff. “Let’s tell Mum and
Dad.”
“I took photographs of
dinosaurs,” said Biff. “Oh yes,” said Dad. “Well,
I’m sorry, I

didn’t put a film in the camera.”
6-5 Robin
Hood
Biff and Wilma went to
the pantomime. They went with Wilma’s mum. They
had a fr
iend
called Anneena.
Anneena went to the pantomime with them. The
pantomime was about Robin
Hood.
Robin Hood was a good man.
He lived in a wood with his men. Everyone liked
Robin Hood and
they gave a cheer every
time he came in. There was a bad man called the
Sheriff. Nobody liked
the Sheriff. He
wanted to catch Robin Hood and lock him up. “Look
out, Robin!” shouted
the children. The
next day, Wilma and Anneena went to play with
Biff. They sang a song about
Robin Hood
. Wilma played her guitar and Anneena
played her recorder. Kipper didn’t like
the
song. He put his hands over his
ears and made a face. “Woooooooh,” said Kipper.
Kipper
had a key round his neck. It was
the magic key. Biff was cross with Kipper. “Put
the key back in
the box,” she said.
Suddenly
the key began to
glow. “Look out, Anneena,” said Biff. “This
is a magic key and the magic is
working. It’s time for an adventure.” The magic
took the
children to a wood. It was the
wood where Robin Hood liked. The children could
see Robin with
some of his
men. Robin Hood had not seen the
children. Anneena was frightened. “I hope he
is a good man,” she said. “Come on,’
said Kipper. “I can smell food.” Robin Hood saw
the children. “Who are you?” he asked.
“Are you lost in the woods? Come and sit down.”
The c
hildren sat by the
fire. “We saw you in a play,” said Anneena. “We
can sing a song
about you.” “Oh no!”
said Kipper. “Not the song again.” Biff, Wilma and
Anneena sang
the song. The song said
everyone liked Robin but nobody liked the Sheriff.
Robin Hood’s
men

gave a cheer. “What a good song!” said
Robin Hood. “Sing it to me again.” Kipper looked
inside a big black pot. Nobody saw the
Sheriff coming. Suddenly the Sheriff’s men ran in.
They
grabbed Robin Hood and put a rope
round him. “Got you at last!” said
the
Sheriff. They
jumped on Robin’s men and
they grabbed Biff, Wilma,and Anneena. They put
them all into a
cart. “Take them away!”
said the Sheriff. Kipper hid in the big black pot.
The Sheriff’s men
didn’t see him. “Oh
no!” he said. “What can I do? I must
help them.” The Sheriff took
them to a village. He said, “My castle
is too far away, so we will stop here. One of my
men will
see you don’t get away.”
Kipper went up to the man. He gave the man a
sweet. “What is
that thing?” he asked.
“You lock people up in it,” said the man. “You
can’t lock people in
that,” said
Kipper. “You can’t get them in.” “Oh yes you can,”
said the man. “Look.”
He put in his
head and his hands. “Ha!” said Kipper. “You fell
for it.” He locked the man
in and took
away his keys. “Grrr!” said the man. Kipper set
them free. “Come on,
everyone,” said
Robin Hood. “Let’s go back to the woods. We don’t
want the Sheriff to
catch us.” They
went to a new part of the woods. “Three cheers for
Kipper,” said Robin
Hood. “Now let’s
sing that song about me again.” “Oh no!” said
Kipper. Suddenly the
magic key began to
glow. “Just in time,” said Kipper. “It’s time for
us to go.”
“Goodbye,” said the
children. “Goodbye,” said Robin Hood, “and
thanks.” “What an
adventure!” said
Anneena. “I liked Robin Hood and his men. Let’s
sing the song.”
“Aaaaaah!” said
Kipper.

swimmers
and
they
liked
going
with
Mrs.
May.
The
children
were
taking
a
swimming
test.
“
It
’
s
time to begin.
”
said Mrs.
May.
“
Who wants to go
first?
”
“
We
do,
”
said Nadim.
Biff,
Chip,
Wilma,
and
Nadim
jumped
into
the
pool.
The
water
was
warm.
“
Off
you
go
”
,
called Mrs, May. They had to swim up
and down the pool. They had to swim ten lengths.
Wilma
was first to swim ten lengths and
Biff and Nadim were next. It was hard for Chip to
swim the ten
lengths.
“
Come on,
Chip,
”
called Mrs. May.
“
Don
’
t
stop. This is the last
length
”
So Chip
went on and everyone was pleased. Next
they had to swim to the bottom of the pool. They
had
to pick up a brick and swim with it
to the top. All the children passed the swimming
test. Mrs
May was very pleased.
“
Well done,
everyone,
”
she said. The
children were pleased too.
Biff and Chip told Mum and Dad about
the swimming test.
“
We
passed,
”
they said. Mum and
Dad were very pleased too. Mum and Dad
had a surprise for them. Biff and Chip
couldn
’
t see
what
the
surprise
was.
“
What
is
ti?
”
asked
Biff.
“
It
’
s
a fish
tank,
”
said Biff.
“
What
a
lovely surprise!
”
Everyone looked at the fish swimming about in the
tank.
“
There is room for
more fish,
”
said
Dad.
“
We can get some next
time we go shopping.
”
The
next day they went
shopping. Dad took
them to a shop that sold fish.
“
What a lovely
shop!
”
said Biff.
“
Look at
all the
fish.
”
There were big fish
and little fish. Kipper liked the big fish in a
tank.
“
Don
’
t
tap
the glass,
”
said Dad.
“
The fish
don
’
t like
it.
”
Dad put some more fish
in the tank. He put
rocks on the
bottom. Next to the rocks he put a ship and a
little box. Wilma and Nadim came to
see
the fish tank.
“
It looks
lovely,
”
said Wilma.
“
I wish I could swim in
there.
”
They went
to play in Biff
’
s
room. Chip ran in with the magic key. The key was
glowing.
“
It
’
s
time for
an
adventure,
”
said Biff.
The magic began to work. It
took the children into a new time it was a
different

-
sort of adventure. The magic took them
underwater. The children had masks and flippers
and
tanks of air. They could swim
underwater. The children had never seen so many
fish. They were
all
different
colours.
“
This
is
better
than
the
pool,
”
thought
Chip.
“
I
feel
like
a
fish,
”
thought Wilma. The children loved
swimming under the water. It was lovely to see all
the fish
and to swim with them. Chip
and Nadim swam to the bottom and picked up a big
shell. Biff
looked at a
jellyfish but she didn
’
t
swim too close. They saw a ship under the water.
It was an
old ship that had been under
the water for a long time. They swam up to the
ship. Wilma didn
’
t
want to swim too close to it. It looked
dangerous. They saw an octopus. Oh no! It was
sitting on
a
chest.
They
couldn
’
t
look
inside
the
chest
with
an
octopus
sitting
on
the
lid.
They
blew
bubbles
at
the
octopus.
The
octopus
didn
’
t
like
the
bubbles
so
it
swam
away.
“
Good!
”
thought
the
children.
“
Now
we
can
look
inside.
”
The
children
opened
up
the
chest
and
looked
inside. It was a treasure chest and it was full of
gold. Biff and Wilma pushed the chest
over and all the gold fell out. Nadim
picked up a necklace and Biff picked up a gold
and
Nadim were busy looking at the
treasure. They didn
’
t see
what Chip and Wilma saw. A shark
was
coming. Chip and Wilma
couldn
’
t tell Biff and
Nadim. They pulled them away and pointed

Biff and Chip went to stay with Gran.
They went to stay for a week. “Be good,” called
Mum.
“Don’t worry,” said Gran. “I
will.” Gran house was small. It ha
d two
bedrooms. Biff and
Chip had to sleep in
the same bedroom. Biff wanted the bed by the door.
Chip wanted the bed
by the window.
“That’s good,” said Gran. Gran took Biff and Chip
for a walk. They went to
the woods.
Biff saw some blackberries. She wanted to pick
some. Gran had some plastic bags.
She
gave one to Biff and Chip. “We can make some
blackberry jam,” she said. Gran made the
blackberry jam. Biff and Chip helped.
Chip made some labels and Biff licked the spoon.
They
made nine jars of jam. “You
can
take a jar home for
Kipper,” said Gran. “And a jar for Wilf
and Wilma. The children loved Gran’s
house. It was very old. It had a big fireplace.
Biff helped
Gran light the fire. Chip
helped Gran get some logs. “Do you have ghosts?”
he asked. Gran
laughed.
“There are no such things,” she said.
They sat by the fire. Gran made some toast. Biff
wanted to try the new jam. “It’s still
too hot,” said Gran. Chip had a new game. It was
called
Haunted House. “Can we play
Haunted House, before we go to bed?” he
asked
. It was time
for bed.
Gran got Chip a hot water bottle. “Is this house
haunted?” asked Biff. “Don’t
worry,”
laughed Gran. “I don’t have ghosts in my house.
There are no such things.” Biff
and
Chip couldn’t sleep. Biff had an idea. She wanted
to play a jok
e on Chip. She had a torch
in
the bed. Biff put the sheet over her
head. She switched on the torch. The sheet glowed.
“Whooooooo! I am a ghost,” said Biff.
Chip laughed. He wasn’t frightened. He pulled the
sheet off Biff. “That was a good joke,”
he said. B
iff and Chip heard a noise.
It came from
outside. “Whoooo! Whoooo!”
went the noise. “Oh no!” said Biff. “It’s a
ghost.” Chip
looked out of the window.
“It’s not a ghost!” he laughed. “It’s an and
look.”
Biff and Chip looked outside.
“Oh no!” said Chip. “I can see a ghost. It is
ghost this time.”

“Gran! Gran!” called Biff. “There’s a ghost
outside.”
But Gran wasn’t in bed. Biff
and Chip ran downstairs. “Gran!” called Biff.
“Where are you?
We’ve seen a ghost.”
But Gran wasn’t downstairs. The door opened. Biff
and Chip were
frightened. “Oh no!” they
said. Gran came in. “We were frightened,” said
Chip. “You
looked like a ghost.” Gran
laughed. “I’m not a ghost,” she said. “I don’t
have ghosts,”
said Gran. “But I do have
two little monsters!” Gran laughed and so did Biff
and Chip.
