The good folks at Bay TV Liverpool had us back again. In this episode of their Twice Upon a Time jackanory-style show featuring Liverpool authors, Gill Torres reads her children's book The Girl Who Could See Stories in full.

There are lots of lovely children's stories to listen to but if you'd like to skip straight to The Girl Who Could See Stories press play at 17 minutes 15 seconds in.

Join us this weekend - Saturday 17th October - when we'll be attending our last vegan fair of the year, the Northern Vegan Festival in Manchester.

This fantastic event will have loads of tasty vegan treats on offer from 10am-6pm, as well as plenty of stalls stocking cruelty free goodies. It's proved so popular this year that the event will be split across 4 sites! We will be pitching our stall in the Methodist Church Central Hall, Oldham Street and reading The Girl Who Could See Stories twice throughout the day, at 12 and 2pm.

Entry is just £2 so please do join us, bring the kids and stop by the stall to say 'hi'.

Big thanks to Little Scribbles for this lovely review of The Girl Who Could See Stories.

'The book is a gentle tale about being mindful about what we eat, thinking about the stories behind the food on our plate. Whilst Gill is passionate about being Vegan, her writing eloquently portrays her views on food, rather than preaching that a vegan diet is best, which is how I have found some other vegan books for children.'

'I read this book with my 3 year old and we had a long conversation about different diets people have and where the food we eat comes from.'

Big thanks to Naomi of Bebopsbooks for this lovely review of The Girl Who Could See Stories.

'The story itself is very unique, we haven’t read anything like it.' 

'Sofiel notices a sadness in her beefburger. It is very emotive but gently approaches the concepts of plant based diets and taking care of our planet, which is quite a tricky thing to achieve...We also liked that when Sofiel ate ‘happy’ foods, she began to feel happy herself.'
