The Bird Who Was Afraid of Heights, by Farah Bagharib-Kaltz


Synopsis: Being afraid of heights isn’t such a big deal – unless you’re a bird! Meet Eddie. A mynah who lives behind an abandoned old house with Matt the rat, his only friend. When one day Matt is captured, how can Eddie stop his world from crashing down?

Activity: Think about something you used to be scared of (eg. cockroaches) and how you overcame that fear. Write a story about that. Eg. 'The Boy Who Was Afraid of Cockroaches'. (Ensure understanding of past tense)
