Storytelling at Jane's

Last Saturday was my first 'children's party. Jane invited round all her neighbours with their many children. I told the adults about the books and then let them have time to browse. Meanwhile I entertained the children. I gave out animal puppets and animal masks and we danced and sang to 'Animal Boogie'. Then I read them some stories. Their attention span was pretty short, but then the oldest was only 5! Several times they came up to me and asked for another story.

I enjoyed myself, the children seemed to like the stories and the adults seemed to be impressed with the books - I made quite a few sales. So, all in all, it was a success!

Thanks very much, Jane!

Congratulations Holly!!

Congratulations to my talented niece, Holly. She has just passed her Grade 1 Piano Exam with Distinction - 97/100!

She obviously takes after her nanny and great nanny (NOT her mum and aunty)!

Well done!
