Help!! What is Town Mayor Roxie to do when she loses something very precious to her and indeed, the whole town..? Just before she’s ready to give up, along comes a small, magimistical bear called Strumbold… This is the story of their adventure - about love, keeping promises and finding magic in everyday stuff. It’s a book to be read out loud to the special (big and small) people in your life. Amongst the kerfuffle, confusion and difficulties of living in our world today… this story will help you remember that there are still simple, important things like friendship, kindness, cake and a Festival of Teddy Bears.

New hat!

I have bought a new hat! It is something to wear when I am reading from or talking about #TheMayorsBear. Increasingly I am starting up conversations with people about the need to get more people - especially young people - involved and engaged in local politics. I emphasise Roxie's conversation with her sister...

"I know I am not going to make World Peace happen. But I can make a small piece of it better!"

So thought - let's put this on a hat... #OnePieceBetter 


(The pin is the UN 17 Colours Sustainable Development Goals with added peace dove - because world peace does still matter!)
