I had arranged to go to Oban with work, so I thought that I would check Oban out and find a retailer for 'Caterpillars CANNOT FLY!'. After discussing with Button Nose Boutique about becoming a retailer, I had arranged to hand deliver stock on Tuesday, however my van needed...
Well, am I excited or what!? I have just had some amazing feedback on 'Caterpillars CANNOT FLY! from the staff and pupils of 'Little Beehive Nursery' in Montrose, and I have arranged my very first reading with them next week. This will be my first ever reading... One of...
