Text and Images from Sam Sam and Marzipan – The Cubby House

As Marzipan sits on the table, Sam Sam shouts to
his cubby friends.
Sam’s dad built the cubby with table, kitchen chairs
and a wooden stove.

Sam Sam and Marzipan‘Come on Tock! Come on Dish! Come on Spoon!
Gather around and listen!’ says Sam Sam, As Tock
waves his arms and joins Dish and Spoon to hear
Sam Sam tell them about today’s adventure..

‘We’re heading to sea! A big chocolate sea, with
mountains made of marshmallow and ALL sorts of
things!’ Sam Sam says excitedly

Sam Sam and MarzipanEveryone is excited as Sam Sam leans out the cubby
window and, like the Captain of a ship, stares out
over a large chocolate sea.
