Let's TRIPLE the fun with TWO stories by Tor Freeman and Marta Altes and ONE session of book selection tips!
Digby Dog Saves the Day
Everyone's favourite postal dog is busier than ever. This time his deliveries take him far and wide, to the castle, the Fun Park, the Library and the Arcade! Use the 'Can You Find' activities to find each character and spot the additional items hidden in each busy scene!
I Am An Artist
A boy loves colours, shapes, textures and EVERYTHING inspires him: socks, the contents of the fridge,even his cat gets a new coat (of paint!). He's about to create his finest piece yet and on a very grand scale to make his mum smile...

Tor Freeman was born and educated in London and graduated from Kingston University with a BA in illustration in 1999.
