 Hello everybody it's Granny Cadendra here again. As I said in my previous diary entries I'll introduce you to my family. Well, today I'm going to show you a little rogue. (but a loveable rogue) His name is Henshaw. He's a good little lad really but his sense of humour makes him ideally suited to his job- you see he's a Hider When the gardener puts something down in a garden and can't find it, this is probably because Henshaw has picked it up and hidden it. It's not stealing because he doesn't really want it, he just hides it for fun. After a while when the gardener has searched high and low, Henshaw puts it back where he got it from. So if you can't remember where you have put something, you can always blame Henshaw  Ha ha ha Love Granny Cadendra x

 Hello everybody. It's me again Granny Cadendra. Well it's been a busy time for all of the Sapplings as we get the garden ready for the frosticle season.  Last time I wrote in my diary, I said I'd introduce you to my family. You've seen Bronick the biggest one, so now I thought I'd introduce you to one of the smallest ones.  QUINETTE     Qunette is the brainy one of the Sapplings. She studied at Brainical School. That's where she learnt how to make potions and lotions. She is a Sting Injector in the garden. If a wasp or a plant stings a human, it loses its sting, so she goes to inject them again with more sting solution. She can make other things. I remember when she was asked... oh no I won't tell you cos that is in her book, so you can read what happened when you get it. I'm a bit late writing my diary tonight, so I'll stop now cos I've got some Ivy to sort out. I'll be back tomorrow. Night Night Love Granny Cadendra x

 Hello again! It's me Granny Cadendra. My family are always a very shy group.  I suppose it's because of the jobs they do and like to keep things a secret.  Let's take Nirlem for example. He's a Weed Winkler. His job is to help the weeds grow. It's a job that needs a lot of strength.  He's not a favourite with the gardener who lives in the cottage garden, because as fast as he pulls the weeds out, Nirlem helps new ones grow.  Most of us can blend into the background, because we're all green and match the plants. If you found our garden and sat very still and quiet, you might be lucky to see us. Nirlem the Weed Winkler. I'll have to go and get on with dinner now, but if you stay in touch I'll introduce you to my family Bye for now Love Granny Cadendra X

Granny Cadendra's diary

 Hello. Well it's a good way to start I suppose. I'm Granny Cadendra. I'm 86 years old and head of the Sappling family. When I get to 100 I'll leave for the sky world. I'm look forward to a rest really. My sons Prumonty and Uncle Angorank will head the family when I'm gone. We're not into technology and all that, but we can be very inventive when we want to get things done. We all live in a cottage garden and help Mother Nature with her jobs. Mine is helping all the vines and climbers to grow tall and strong. If you look in your garden, you'll see all these plants twist and connect to things- well, that's what I do. I tie them up.(usually in the evening when humans are now around) There are lots of laws to the garden and we thought as a family it might be a good idea to tell you some of our adventures, and learn some of our laws. I won't say too much in page one of my diary, cos I've got a bit of cramp. I'll be back tomorrow with more. Lo...
