So that's it.  Poetry in the Park is over for this year. 

We've had a fab time doing it and the children and their families who came along also really enjoyed themselves.

We enjoyed 'Daddy Fell into the Pond' by the duck pond and encountered Mr Toad.  We grew as little nut trees in the woods and planted seeds in the walled garden as we asked 'How will your garden grow?'.

We all joined in with the 'Owl and the Pussycat' by the totem pole, complete with our very own pig.  Unfortunately we left the pig (complete with a ring in the end of his nose) unattended in the park on Monday morning and when we came back he had gone. So if you were in Normanby Park on Monday and found a small plush pig with a ring in the end of his nose loitering by the totem pole please can you point him back in the direction of the Central Library. The owl and the pussycat are missing him.

If you are looking for something else to do over half-term and missed out on the poems, you can still come along to our Halloween-themed storytime on Thursday 29th October at 10am in the Central Library.

We hope to see you soon.
