Through My Window
Author(s): Bradman, Tony
Jo is ill and has to stay in bed for the day, but her mum promises her to bring her home a surprise to make her feel better. All day long Jo looks out of the window waiting for her mum to return, and in the meantime sees all her friends from the neighbourhood, including the postman, the window cleaner and Mrs Ali from next door. But when will Mum be back with her surprise for Jo?
