New images are released today ahead of Little Angel Theatre’s major new adaptation of Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler’s Charlie Cook’s Favourite Book reuniting adaptors Barb Jungr and Samantha Lane (who also directs) following their celebrated collaboration on the Olivier-nominated The Smartest Giant in Town, also written by Julia Donaldson and illustrated by Axel Scheffler.
Both picture books are published by Macmillan Children’s Books. Alongside this puppet-filled musical, which at its core celebrates the joy of reading, LAT will deliver a programme of play-based workshops to support literacy and encourage a deeper exploration of picture books. The workshops will share creative routes into stories – both at home and in the classroom – with the aim to inspire reluctant readers and give families and teachers the tools to explore books through play.
