Call That A Leaf?

Do you all already read the blog of the excellent John Finnemore? I hope you do. You should. In any case, he just found a really big leaf and it reminded me of an even bigger leaf that once became attached to my head. Witness John's fine leaf here:

And then behold this freak of nature:
That's not even my face. It's how the plant grew.

  2. Good leaf Joe!

    And so impressed I am with that leaf, I just bought all the Jimmy Coates books from a local shop that will mail them to me in time for Christmas. Yes really! I have twin boys who eat up exciting books, and they need a REAL LOT to get through the summer (we're in Australia).

    So thanks for the Christmas shopping help!

  3. Thanks for the comments, Sarah and Pauline.
    Pauline, I hope the books go down well - let me know! Also, you have a blog called 'Jimmy the altered bean'?! This is awesome. I will spread the word.
    I'm off to find more giant leaves now.

  4. Ah yes, well I have a few blogs - Cafe Gorgeous is the real one. Jimmy the Altered Bean is a writing game I invented for the kids. Worked for us. No idea if anyone else has even looked. But anything that gets a kid to say "Please can we write?" has got to be a good thing.
