Does your family love the story Charlie Cook's Favourite Book?
You can watch the story live on stage at the Plowright Theatre next month.
Charlie loves reading. Especially books about pirates. But his sister hates it - it's boring! Can Charlie convince her that reading is fun? Perhaps if she read a book about a pirate, who is reading a book about Goldilocks, who is reading a book about a knight.
Come and delve into a range of books with Charlie Cook, brought to life with puppetry and enchanting songs, and perhaps you will be able to help his sister discover the wonderful world inside a book.
