The Gruffalo said that no gruffalo should
Ever set foot in the deep dark wood…
Tall Stories presents The Gruffalo’s Child, enchantingly adapted from Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler’s much-loved award-winning picture book.
One wild and windy night the Gruffalo’s Child ignores her father’s warnings about the Big Bad Mouse and tiptoes out into the deep dark wood. She follows snowy tracks and encounters mysterious creatures – but the Big Bad Mouse doesn’t really exist…does he?
