http://www.margaretholmes.me.uk/corky/10.htm

Chapter 10 - FANTASY FAIR. Don't listen to her' said Geraldine, 'he's only a QUACK Doctor! A small group had gathered round Dr Waddle and he began to recite a little verse which went like this:-. Chuckles and chortles and giggles and roars. Mixed up with, gurgles and grins and guffaws. Don't take too much or you may split your sides. Only a TEASE-spoon is what I prescribe'. Why does Tumble remind you of a cracked beaker? Corky thought hard. 1 know' he cried, 'cos he's a funny mug! There were many excitin...

Chapter 13 - WONDER WORKS. Now I'm going to show you something very exciting' said Miss Wise, leading Corky out of the school and across a lawn bordered with beautiful flowers. They came to a huge building which was so colourful, he imagined that some giant artist had emptied all his paints onto the roof and they'd trickled down the walls. 'This is our Rainbow Repair Works' she told him, 'and it's run entirely by the children'. They entered the open doorway and stood surveying the room. Corky gaped!

Chapter 1 - CORKY ARRIVES. Corky opened his eyes, shook his head, and stared round in utter amazement. 'Cor! He exclaimed. 'Wherever am I? Never in his life had he seen such beauty. It was a million times more wonderful than Regent's Park, the only other place with which he could compare it. Cor' ' he exclaimed again as he always did when he was surprised, looking at the tallest one which seemed like an emerald needle pointing up to the sky. Must be 'igher than Big Ben! What a view from up there! For the...

Chapter 3 - ON THE TREE TOP. Corky listened spellbound as Geraldine proceeded to tell him about this extraordinary place. 'Everything here is controlled by THOUGHT' she said. Said Corky in disbelief. 'D'you mean you don't 'ave no other power? But wot about electricity for the light and the telly and the trains? And then there's engines wot makes the cars go and the buses and the aeroplanes and the ships and.' He was far too astonished to go on. All he could say was ' Cor! Ere 'Ow d'you know I fink that?

http://www.margaretholmes.me.uk/corky/6.htm

Chapter 6 - THE PICTURE. On one occasion Corky remembered, it had begun to rain suddenly just when Barney was putting the finishing touches to his 'Castle of Dreams'. The old man had got up slowly and painfully from his knees and wrapped his chalks in a tattered woolly sock. Corky had known exactly how he must have felt and he cried with frustration and shook his fist at God. 'Why did you 'ave to do that? You've spoilt Barney's picture'. As Corky gazed at Bazu's painting of palm trees fringing a golden b...

Chapter 5 - THE CHILDREN. Leo startled him by saying 'They're animals too. The only difference between us is that you're a human animal with two legs and I'm a beastly one with four'. Oh certainly' said Geraldine, 'we've lots of them but they're not a bit like you. They've got beards and horns'. Them's goats' (and he nearly added 'stupid') I mean children. Of course and they come in different shapes and colours - brown, black, yellow and pink like you'. Now stop being miserable' said Geraldine. 'You'...

http://www.margaretholmes.me.uk/corky/9.htm

Chapter 9 - AMY. Being alone in a room was an extremely new experience for Corky. 'But I don't feel a bit lonely' he thought. 'Funny fing that! It's like Gran; she lives on her own but she's never lonely'. He'd never realised this before. Now it suddenly occurred to him that the reason why she wasn't lonely was her THOUGHTS. 'She's always finking about the nice fings she's done or about us or them other old people she goes and talks to'. I wonder if it'll work? But if I FINK it will, it will'. So Cor...
