Each child attending a workshop will receive a FREE copy of Drew, Moo and Bunny Too to take home and keep!
How did it go?
We had a fabulous morning with poet and writer Owen Sheers and illustrator Helen Stephens at Hull New Theatre! Owen read extracts from the lyrical Drew, Moo and Bunny, Too and Helen created accompanying illustrations live on stage. Told in enchanting verse, this is a story about friendship, adventure and… pirates! The audience was enthralled and loved coming up on to stage to draw what they could see through the raroscope! Thank you to everyone who came - we wish you lots of happy hours reading your copies of Drew, Moo and Bunny, Too.
