'I was blown away by this children’s book. Here is a rare thing indeed: a children’s book with a strong moral message whilst also presenting an artistic and creative flair.' 😊💫📚https://t.co/cnTv0lqzz0 #ChildrensBooks #storytelling

Recently facilitated making monsters out of bags. Love this idea. Someone taking part, who couldn't have been older than 3, made several different monsters and confidently told me that they're not scared of monsters, which I thought was magic 😊👍

Rainy day solidarity: Young woman buys a book, glances outside at rain & asks 'Is it ok if I stay a bit & read it here?' Us: 'Of course! Would you like a cup of tea with it?' Customer is visibly surprised, but glad to accept!

Fab customer orders books for her child's Birthday Party Going Home Bags (yes! we do do that!). Her: 'I need 10 books for 3 year olds, 5 books for 1 year olds and one book for a 37 year old'. Me: 'Really?' Her: 'It's for my husband. He gets sad if he doesn't get a book too'

Good morning 😊 Do you read eBooks? If so, where do you get the eBook from?

Always thrilling to see The Rare Monkey on the Princes Trust instagram. Really wouldn't have found the confidence to have created books without them 👍😊🌟😘

We painted with unusual paint brushes in the sunshine this week. Bliss 😊👍 #facilitating #creativeplay

@Baddiel I can't wait for the episode of The Crown in series 12 where the Queen sits down to watch The Crown series 1.

@Biggreenbooks It's an amazing event, isn't it? I remember going as a child; same large figures, whole event lot small. I get bit emotional when I see Jack. Enjoy 😊

Books books books. Being and liking yourself and appreciating others are our books themes. And, of course, bottoms...🙊🙈🙉

Hey hey! Back to work on The Rare Monkey with the Colourful Bottom storytelling performance. Games craft and session developing too. Perhaps you know a festival, venue, bookshop that might be interested? If so, love to hear your thoughts....
