Folktale week prompt five: depth 🐻 this bear is a bit out of his depth! #folktaleweek2024

Folktale week prompt six: bone🐭 bit of an unusual interpretation, but it’s a play on the pun ‘tellingbone’ which apparently came from a TV series ‘Catweazle’ meaning telephone but replacing phone with bone! ☎️ #Folktaleweek2024

Imaginary cook cover for a Wizard of Oz theme! Also my final interpretation of the prompt: blossom 🌸 for Folktale week 2024 ✏️

A full house at #FreckletonLibrary with the cutest story workshop from our local author Genevieve Aspinall. The children really enjoyed listing to stories about Percy the Post Penguin.
