This looks brilliant!
Here's a glimpse into the world of #MoonRiver... @theatrealison brings @TimHopgood's illustrations to life, with a new recording by @barbjungr & #JennyCarr. The perfect way to introduce little ones to this classic song. Set a reminder for 11am on Sun: youtube.com/watch?v=4zxPLoCw…

Another book recommendation- Planet Rescue by Patrick George. Such an inspiring and clever book. Transparent pages show children how they can take action to help the planet. @PatrickGeorge2
