The Journal I'll Use To Write I.B.F.F Diaries

I got my Diary Of A Wimpy Kid write in journal. Today I've already written about I.B.F.F Diaries '97, in excerpts, which is mainly about one of my I.B.F.Fs, Kipper. I'll continue to write more about him and my other I.B.F.Fs, Mitchell, Becky, Templeton, Luke, Resus, Cleo, Tiny and Small Clanger in autism-friendly adventures that even non-autistic people can read.

Clangers Overview - Small's Big Surprise

LAST TIME ON CLANGERS: One of the Skymoos gave birth!

And now, a thrilling adventure based on a Clangers book I borrowed from the library....

I borrowed a book about the Clangers from the library, and it was all about Small Clanger's birthday. This episode, tonight, is all about just that. In the last Bedtime programme, Moon & Me, Pepi Nana and Little Nana had a party all of their own - as princesses enjoying tea and cake in the castle. Well, this party is different, as it is all the way up in outer space.

The Froglets and Tiny's flower friends go to wake up Tiny, and go quietly towards her scooter. It's Small's birthday, and they want everyone, including Major, to be extra quiet and secretive. Tiny wants to use her scooter for the surprise, but it has a squeak, and doesn't want Small to hear about the surprise. Small has a boogie when he hears he's getting a scooter for his birthday, as most little boys dream of having a rocketship or a pet dragon for their birthday, or maybe even a football. Small decides to go fishing, and soon everyone gets into action on preparing presents for Small's birthday.

Granny, Baby Soup Dragon and the Glow-Buzzers prepare for the party, whilst Small collects an old metal seat whilst out fishing. He goes to visit the Iron Chicken, and gives her the metal seat, but the Iron Chicken forgets Small's birthday. The whole 'forgetting someone's birthday' premise never gets old, as really people plan surprise parties for their friend's birthday. The Iron Chicken tries to find something for Small's birthday.

Tiny and Baby Soup Dragon and the others surprise Small when he arrives back on the planet. Major and Mother give him a tool box, and the Iron Chicken arrives, confused. Granny gives Small a knitted rainbow hat, whilst the Iron Chicken sneaks off, and the dragons give Small a box of interesting things. The Glow Buzzers give Small honey, and Tiny and her four friends put on a birthday show just for Small. Birthday hug! Small stays behind and looks at his new presents, until a pile of junk lands along with the Iron Chicken - this gives Small an idea to make something.

The others prepare a birthday feast of birthday cake - a beautiful blue cake with a rose on top, some plums and blue string pudding. Baby Soup Dragon goes out to fetch Small, but he's nowhere to be seen. Everyone starts looking for Small, until he emerges with an old fashioned looking scooter that happens to....to.....to....fly! It's a super scooter! With help of the Iron Chicken, of course. We'll leave them to have their birthday tea now. What a night it has been.

Goodnight, Tiny. Goodnight and happy birthday, Small.
