Grown-ups keep secrets – all sorts of stuff,
Which they only tell you when you’re old enough,
And now you’re getting bigger, it’s about time you knew -
About a secret that they have been keeping from you!
There’s a little family who lives under each bed.
Some who are blue and some that are red.
It goes without saying that they’re all very small,
(They live under your bed after all!)
It’s the Norf Clan I’ll tell you about today,
They live under a bed – not far away,
They camp out in a mattress between the springs,
Collecting toys and buttons and interesting things…
The Norf clan is an entertaining narrative poem about a mischievous gamily who live under the bed of a young boy and get him into trouble and prove that sometimes, life just isn’t fair - but you’ll get over it!
“This delightful poem narrates a whimsical tale of the mischievous Norf Clan, the tiny family living under the bed, whose playful antics create chaos in their human host’s rooms. Through its lively rhymes and engaging storytelling, it captures themes of mischief, responsibility, and eventual teamwork. The vivid imagery brings the Norf Clan’s antics to life, from their playful tricks to their ultimate decision to mend their ways and tidy up the mess they created.
The evolution of the story is charming, showcasing the boy’s initial confusion, the escalating chaos caused by the Clan, and their eventual realisation of the consequences of their actions. The resolution, where the Norf Clan takes responsibility and cleans up after the messy boy, adds a heartwarming and humorous twist, flipping the typical roles of responsibility between children and mythical beings.”
