To celebrate the 25th birthday of Julia Donaldoson's beloved book, we are having a birthday storytime with a very special guest! Oh help! oh no! IT'S A GRUFFALO! We will read two classic stories and then The Gruffalo will pick his favourite new book to be read! Come along, join the fun and meet our favourite character from the deep dark wood.

About the book
A mouse took a stroll through the deep dark wood.
A fox saw the mouse and the mouse looked good.
Walk further into the deep dark wood, and discover what happens when a quick-witted mouse comes face to face with an owl, a snake . . . and a hungry Gruffalo!
Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler's The Gruffalo is an undisputed modern classic and has become a best-selling phenomenon across the world with over 13.5 million copies sold. This award-winning rhyming story of a mouse and a monster has found its way into the hearts and bedtimes of an entire generation of children and will undoubtedly continue to enchant children for years and years to come. No home should be without The Gruffalo!
