 Join the fun this half term at a free story and craft session of 'Outside the Box' by Sue Lancaster. Read along with Sue about Fennel, the Fox, who liked to think thoughts that were 'outside the box'...

A heart-warming tale of determination and staying true to yourself.

In the tranquil woods where whispers of adventure rustle through fragrant leaves, Fennel the Fox finds himself at a crossroads. Fennel yearns for something more fulfilling, a life rooted in love for nature and authenticity.

When the weight of conformity bears down on him like a heavy cloak, Fennel bravely embraces the unknown and embarks on a journey to the bustling city, determined to discover how to harmonise his unique spirit with the world around him.

But will he find acceptance in a place where foxes are expected to be sly, or will he teach the city to appreciate the beauty of thinking outside the box?

Join Fennel on this heart-warming adventure that weaves themes of determination, self-acceptance, and friendship.

 Join the fun this Easter half term at a free story and craft session of 'The Old Scarecrow' by Tabatha D'Agata.  

Read along with Sarah about Farmer Fred, who faces a tough choice. His old scarecrow, Tom, has stood guard over the cornfield for years. But now, a relentless flock of crows threatens to devour his crops.

As the crows invade, Fred's bond with Tom is tested. It's not just about the corn; it's about tradition, loyalty, and what it means to protect.

Farmer Fred scratched his head as the crows swarmed the cornfield. Tom the scarecrow had been a loyal guardian for years. But with the corn disappearing faster than ever, Fred began to think it might be time for a change.

Will Goose, Cow, and a particularly shaggy Sheep (who desperately needs a shave) rally together to save their cherished scarecrow, Tom, from possible replacement?
