Coles Books – Saturday 20th April

Who is this creature with terrible claws
And terrible teeth in his terrible jaw?
He has knobbly knees and turned-out toes
And a poisonous wart on the end of his nose.
His eyes are orange, his tongue is black;
He has purple prickles all over his back…

It’s the Gruffalo! And he’s coming to visit us on Saturday 20th April!

There will be some very special story readings at 10am, 11am, 3pm and 4pm on the day. So come along and help the Gruffalo celebrate his 25th birthday!
