British actress Kate Winslet has performed a surprise reading to the crowd’s delight at Camp Bestival Shropshire. Instead we see our grumpycorn continue his grumpy ways towards all his friends. They all try to help him and all he does is act angry with them. Which saddened me. I was hoping he would see that they were just trying to help. The Academy-Award winner, 47, appeared at the CBeebies Bedtime Story Tent in Weston Park for an intimate reading of children’s classic Blueberries For Sal by Robert McCloskey on Sunday. Winslet’s upcoming projects include a biographical film, in which she stars as Elizabeth “Lee” Miller, a fashion model-turned-war correspondent for Vogue, which will be one of the 37 world premieres at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) this September.

Hear from the creators of our superbly silly titles in the Picture Books Shortlist for the Laugh Out Loud Awards 2023! I thought this book was not that great. It felt very flat and not very climactic. As someone who loves picture books, very much, and always gives them a 4-5 star rating, I am disappointed that this book didn't reach the level of expectation I had. Illustrator and writer Sarah McIntyre is easy to spot in her pointy glasses and hats. Her books include the comic Vern and Lettuce, four books with Philip Reeve, including Pugs of the Frozen North and Jinks & O'Hare Funfair Repair, and her picture books include There's a Shark in the Bath and Dinosaur Police. She loves creating books and comics with friends and getting inspired by batting around ideas and drawings with them. We spoke to Sue H. Cunningham, the author behind Totally Deceased – the brand-new, hilarious, high-stakes YA murder mystery! Unicorn sets out to write the best story in the world. Problem - he doesn't have an idea. He is rude to friends and chases them off. He gives up but they save the day by writing the story together. Unicorn realizes what happened and apologizes.Unicorn is confident that he is about to write the most fabulous story in the world. He settles down in his special writing house with his fluffy pen, fancy notebook and a cup of moonberry tea, waiting for inspiration to strike. Alas, he has no idea where to start.

Kate Winslet, Anthony Joshua, Richard E. Grant and Justin Fletcher read CBeebies Bedtime Stories at Christmas The ending? I loved that despite every grumble and complaint his friends tried to help out the grumpycorn. That they still tried to make him happy. I had tears in my eyes. And then our unicorn made its appearance and I was even happier with the events. Winslet chose the book because it was one of her favourites during her childhood and has since enjoyed reading to her own children, including her son, whose name is Bear.

He gets out his favorite pen, but has no idea what to write. That doesn't stop him from telling everybody that he's going to write the best book ever. His animal friends are impressed and ask if they can be in it, but unicorn snobbishly refuses. But he can't come up with anything better. I was so happy when I learned that Sarah McIntyre would be having a brand-new picture book, this time about a unicorn, no, a grumpycorn!

What will it take for Unicorn to write the most fabulous story in the world? Will he simply have a diva meltdown and alienate all his friends?The art was just amazingly fun, but then again, I had high hopes given that this is Sarah McIntyre and she makes some amazing gorgeous illustrations. I spend quite some time finding all the little details in the illustrations and soak up all the gorgeous colours.
