ABOUT NANNA STRAWBERRY STORIES .....
Audrey was inspired to write these delightful little books by her first
great granddaughter, Sophie, who could not say her name Audrey so
called her 'Nanna Strawberry'. This appealing incident is the subject of
.the first book in the series, when Nanna takes Sophie and her mummy to
New Brighton for the afternoon. Superb llustrations by Vladi Vladamar
has also illustrated books 2 and 3, assisted by 15 year old Caitlin Westall
in book 3. Family circumstances prevented Vladi from completing book 4
in time for Christmas, so new designer, Wayne Stewart, maintained the
original style with some new innovations and Audrey then undertook
illustrating the books herself and continues to do so because children have
clearly liked her naive style which is being maintained up to book 12 to
avoid further changes in style. Each book describes a happy event which
involves all the children in Audrey's life, including her own childhood and
her three children, also nine grandchildren and now four great grandchildren,
in random order. Most children and their readers can happily relate to the
stories, so each book contains two blank pages for them to include their own
story.
Priced £3.99 each, the Nanna Strawberry stories have a number of original
features which are now part of their unique identity and make them very special.
Great to collect the whole series !
Car parking is free at Sainsbury's so chance to do your shopping as well
as starting your collection of Nanna Strawberry stories, which also make
lovely gifts. Especially 'Nanna Strawberry Remembers Easter Fun..and
egg rolling' which comes with a creme egg as a gift from Nanna Strawberry.
Happy Easter with tons of love from Nanna Strawberry xxx
