Children's stories 1970s

[laffy2202]

I had two favourite books as a child which I would like to read to my children but I can't remember their titles. One was about a pebble on a beach which got seperated from it's family, and the other was about a neverending bowl of porridge. I remember both had really enticing illustartions. Does anybody know the titles?

the magic porridge pot is a Brother Grimm story.
Available in many formats.

Was this the Magic Porridge Pot you were thinking of?

I loved the illlustrations in the Ladybird books and have kept all of mine; well, the ones the hamster didn't chew to pieces at least!

I do have recollections of books about a pebble family, will see what I can find.

Hi Laffy2202. I am also trying to find the book about the pebble family on the beach. Did you find it? If so, please post the title and author here.
