Norwood Family
FATHER WENSLEYDALE-HECTOR NORWOOD known as 'WH' to his friends, is the jolly chap who owns the newspaper, book and stationary shop called WH Norwood & Sons. His favourite pastime is gossiping with all his regular customers! (30 Mar)
MOTHER BRIE NORWOOD (born NORLAND) also works at the shop. She can always be found sitting at her desk in the back office keeping the business records. In her spare time she is studying very hard to become a fully-fledged Chartered Accountant and – strange as it may seem – can't wait to sit the difficult exams! (17 Sep)
BROTHER ENDEAVOUR NORWOOD is the paperboy for his father and mother's shop and is blessed with boundless energy and enthusiasm. Every day before school he gets up hours before the birds have uttered their first sleepy 'tweet' to name and address all the papers for delivery. (28 Feb)
BROTHER KARL NORWOOD is looking forward to the Sports Day. He wants to win the sack race.
SISTER KATY NORWOOD, unlike her early rising brother, morning is not the best time of day for Katy. In fact, the week is not particulary popular with her, because she doesn't like getting out of bed and going to school. Of course, on Saturday afternoon she works in the shop! (12 Jul)
BABY BROTHER NORMAN NORWOOD loves paper. He loves drawing on paper, painting on paper and most of all, he loves wet, squishy paper that he can mould into different shapes. It's called 'Papier Mache' but Norman's efforts look more like 'Paper Mashed'! All in all, it's very fortunate that his parents have so much spare paper in their shop for messy Norman to play with. (19 Apr)
BABY SISTER MILLIE NORWOOD is very good at crying. She's also excellent at screaming and stomping her feet until she goes quite red in the face. What Millie is not very good at is sleeping. That's why all the other children call her 'Shoosh', because that is what their parents tell them to do every time they go near her...in case they wake Millie up from one of her rare snoozes. (6 Aug)
