Produktbeschreibung

Gloria is making a big pot of porridge and Cat wants a share. When Gloria says no, Cat takes matters into his own hands and eats the lot! What happens next interrupts everyone's day... Inspired by an Ethiopian folk tale, Gloria's Porridge shows that placing blame is not the answer, and sometimes you both have to apologise to make it right.
