Under the Parasol

by Rita Phillips Mitchell

A performed reading of Hue Boy by Rita Phillips Mitchell & illustrated by Caroline Binch.

Join Tutti Frutti Under the Parasol for 30 minutes of delightful storytelling. Tutti Frutti’s most experienced performer Stewart Thomas introduces the Smarties prize winning book Hue Boy to children aged 4-7.

Hue Boy may be the smallest boy in his village but he is big news.

Pumpkin soup and exercise are just some of the suggestions to make him grow.

We invite you to be transported to a Caribbean village through this heartwarming storytelling performance and 1-hour workshop.
