Southport Book shop

It was very interesting to see proprietor, Kate, within the crowded walls of her
fascinating book shop, describing the sale at last of a long stored book.
Kate displays a selection of Nanna Strawberry stories on her children's book shelves
and author Audrey Wilson hopes it will not take over 30 years to sell them.  Please pop
along and buy one at the first chance you get. Lovely little books in a lovely book shop
which is a treat to visit.

Well done Kate !

Visit to St Barnabas Primary School, Warrington

Nanna Strawberry spent a very happy afternoon with Year 5 and Miss Callaghan at
St Barnabas Primary School, Warrington, yesterday.  Just the visit to one class on this
occasion, so time to read several stories and to re-enact the Queen's accession to the
throne on the death of her dear father, King George VI. There were some amusing
stories from boys and girls about their experiences when crab fishing in various parts of
the country.  The afternnon concluded with a superb performance by Class 5 of
'The Nightmare Man'.  Sincere thanks to Miss Callaghan, her assistant, and all pupils.

Visit to Park View Primary School

Nanna Strawberry has experienced a lovely day amongst the lovely pupils at Deans Trust
Park View Primary School, albeit a challenging day too amongst these responsive children.   
During morning assembly, the children had the opportunity to choose how they would call their
visitor.  Nanna Audrey, Mrs Wilson or NannaStrawberry and much to her delight, it was their
unanimous decision to call her Nanna Strawberry. Always her favourite choice on these occasions.
Especially when the name was sustained all day, even when passing in school corridors.
Sincere thanks to Mrs Daly who liaised with Nanna Strawberry and all school staff who gave
 friendly support during visits to their individual classes. Special thanks to the courteous Head Girl
 and Head Boy who with unfailing promptness ensured that Nanna Strawberry was in the correct
 class at the correct time and assisted with the transportation of book luggage.

Book orders are purely optional, but Nanna Strawberry looks forward to receiving orders with
 payments for any of her books, which she will be very happy to sign in the name of the pupil and
 return to school for distribution. £1 from each order will be donated by the author to school funds.
£3.99 ea or 3 for £10.
Book list in letter with order form, distributed to pupils by school staff for attention of parents.
