Frog in a Fog storytime with Marielle Bayliss
Saturday 14 December from 11.00am to 11.30am.
Come and have some fun with this interactive storytelling session with author Marielle Bayliss who will be reading her story "Frog in a Fog". As Frog keeps bounding from place to place hoping to find somewhere to call home, he starts to feel hopeless. Will he ever find a place to settle away from all the fumes, litter and sewage?
Booking is required. To secure your place, please book online using the Eventbrite link below, or visit Banstead Library to purchase your ticket in person.
