Question time! What will emerge from the tiny door? How will the boy react to seeing it emerge? ‘The Borrowers’ is a book by Mary Norton about little people called ‘Borrowers’ who borrow things from people’s houses. What do you think the difference is between borrowing and stealing? Have you ever borrowed something, but then forgotten to give it back? Is that stealing? If we borrow every single book from a library, is that borrowing? Is it still a library? If I ask you if I can steal your pencil case and you say yes, is that stealing?

emerges from the door.

Writing inspiration

On a quiet day, you can sometimes hear them. Every now and then, there’s be a tapping or a scraping or a rustling from behind

the door. Occasionally (if you’re patient enough to sit for the whole day and watch), movement can be glimpsed through the

dark windows. Once, just once, the faint sound of whispering in hushed tones was heard.

The boy had spent his entire summer holidays wishing for something to emerge from the mysterious door. He had spent yet

another sunny morning hiding in the tall grass at the bottom of his garden just staring at the door, hoping to catch a glimpse of

something or someone extraordinary.
