Today we're going to dig out our copy of Redwall, because the wonderful Brian Jacques was born #OnThisDay in 1939. We'd love to hear if you're a fan of Brian's special books (we're getting hungry just thinking about all the banquets!)
Anyone looking to do this - we can help with a great school discount.

We're sorry to hear that beloved children's author, Eric Carle, has passed away at age 91. The Very Hungry Caterpillar has always been a firm favourite of ours and the children we support.
