World Book Day 4th March 2010

Jay from Pignut Productions came to the library on World Book Day and enthralled parents and toddlers with his wonderful one man show 'Ahhh!!'. Jay acted out waking in the morning with the sun, making his bed, having a cup of tea, watering his plants, brushing his teeth, going to bed at night with the moon... His performance was gentle and calming, full of wonder and magic. Children and adults alike were completely engrossed and sorry to see it end... Ahhhh!!
