Weasels by Elys Dolan

What do you think weasels do all day? Plan world domination that's what. They're in their control room and counting down to taking over the world. But what's happened? The lights have gone out. The weasels try to identify the cause of their technical difficulties and head for the lab in search of solutions. But their 'clever ideas' seem far too complex, and mightn't the problem be caused by something quite simple? Has anybody checked the plug? The clock is ticking once more...

This is a wonderful story that will appeal to older children within the Foundation Stage and inspire lots of experimenting!
