HELLO and welcome to the very latest news from ALBERT the tortoise HQ and our good friends Hugg ‘n’ Bugg.
School is BACK and so are we in full swing with visits and events.
We have started off in Birmingham, working with Bookmark Reading Charity, and held super ALBERT and HnB story time sessions at Nelson Mandela Primary in Sparbrook, Birmingham.

Great events – big Thanks to everyone involved.
Then we headed to Yorkmead Primary, Hall Green, Birmingham…

As you can see, we received an almost instant – and wonderful – Thank you note from one of the schoolchildren.
Supersize thanks to all involved.
While in the area, we were pleased to gift signed ALBERT and Hugg ‘n’ Bugg books to a couple of Libraries…
To Rubery Library in Worcestershire…

and to Hall Green Library …

Closer to home we also gifted copies of our NEW Albert picturebook – ALBERT AND CHRISTMAS – to our local libraries…
To Hale End library Waltham Forest…

and to South Chingford Community Library…

We will be gifting books to more local libraries very soon. Please support libraries – Great local assets.
