  • Mouse and Majesty with Prologue by Granny Diana
    Mar 2 2023

    Mouse and Majesty follows a country mouse who travels across England to meet Her Majesty The Queen to invite her home for a cup of tea.

    Against all odds, Mouse pushes through challenges involving a horse, a train, a bicycle, a boat and a dangerous cat!

    At last Mouse finds Her Majesty the Queen, and the pair fly back to Mouse's home to Yorkshire in a hot air balloon to enjoy a well-deserved cuppa.

    In homage to our late Queen Granny Diana (she's on the back of the book!) recites her very special poem. 

    Complete with charming songs and playful sounds to enchant young children and adults alike.

  • The night before Christmas - a Christmas Special read by Granny Vonne
    Dec 24 2021

    Sharing in the magic of Christmas listen to Granny Vonne who tells the traditional story of St Nicholas taken from a poem written by Clement C Moore in 1822. The wise old voice of a grandmother captures all that is family about spending time together listening, engaging with, and enjoying stories with a little smattering of music. 

    One story out of three!

    Musical tales are a wondrous way of encouraging young children to vocalise, sing, dance and leap off into the realms of vocal exploration. Expect musical mayhem, instrumental excitement and lots of unexpected surprises!
