Introduction
Meet Rosie Rudey
and her family
Rosie Rudey lives with her mum, dad, brother William Wobbly, and sisters, Sophie Spikey, Katie Careful and Charley Chatty. The children did not have an easy start in life and now live with their new mum and dad. All the stories are true stories. The children are real children who had difficult times, and were left feeling as if they could not trust grown-ups to sort anything out, or look after them properly. Sometimes the children were sad, sometimes very angry. Often they did things which upset other people but they did not understand why.
In this story, Rosie has a fuzzy feeling in her tummy. She has spotted a lot of chocolate in the kitchen and knows this will help her to stop feeling fuzzy. Rosie makes a beautiful chocolate mountain in her bedroom and feels she must eat quite a lot. Now she is feeling a bit ill though, and it’s dinner time! What will she do? Luckily, Rosie’s new mum is good at spotting when Rosie is feeling fuzzy and is able to help her sort it out.
Written by Rosie’s mum, and Rosie (who is a grown up now), this story will help everyone feel a bit better.
Sometimes Rosie Rudey was very rude to her new mum and dad. She didn’t like people helping her and always used her grumpy, squished up face to keep people away. Her brother and sisters, Katie, William, Sophie and Charley, annoyed Rosie quite a lot. She liked being VERY bossy to them.
When Katie annoyed Rosie, she felt a fuzzy feeling in her tummy.
When Sophie teased her about her grumpy, meany face, she felt the fuzzy feeling too.
When Charley Chatty got Mum’s attention, her tummy felt VERY fuzzy.
When Rosie felt fuzzy, she was very grumpy...even more grumpy than normal!
Rosie wondered which was bigger in her tummy: grumpiness or fuzziness.
William said she was the greediest. Sometimes Rosie did not like William very much.
When it was lovely food time, Rosie forgot about being rude and stamping about quite so much. Rosie thought about eating lovely things ALL THE TIME!
Rosie’s very best ‘lovely food’ was chocolate. She quite liked cakes and biscuits, but Rosie would do ANYTHING to get chocolate. She would even be polite and smiley to her mum. Chocolate made her feel all warm and cosy, her tummy smiled and the fuzziness went away.
Today, Mum was busy sorting out William and Katie who were arguing about who had the biggest space on the sofa. Rosie noticed that everyone’s chocolate Easter eggs had been left out on the kitchen table. Mum always let them have a bit each day but Rosie wanted ALL of hers. Right now!
Rosie concentrated very hard on walking slowly so nobody noticed what she was doing. As she walked past the Easter eggs, her hand suddenly picked two up.
Rosie held the eggs stiffly at her side and slid past the others so they did not see what she was doing.
