Chapter 4

Chapter FOUR We all followed Mum and Dad into the back garden. Then Mum pointed her wand at the sky. A silvery thread shot out of the end and lassoed itself around one of the fat fluffy clouds in the sky. Mum pulled it down to the ground gently and pegged it into the grass. 'Clouds make wonderful bouncy
