Lovely review of my Grandpa Kuma book reading last week from the Deputy Headteacher at Merrow C of E Infant School. Huge thanks to the children and staff who gave me a super warm welcome. It was a really fun afternoon 🥰🐻‍❄🐾

“A lovely, sensitive reading of a book that resonates so well with many of our children who navigate daily the complexities & joys of bilingualism; Michelle responded so thoughtfully & encouragingly to their questions about the processes of writing & illustrating a book”.
