Charlie Cook’s Favourite Book artwork. Illustrated. A light green grassy field, in front of forests and mountains. A castle sits in front of the mountain peaks. O the grassy field, (left to right) a green dragon, and orange frog sitting on a stack of books, a bear, a pirate, a knight in medieval armour and a parrot circle around a young boy wearing a red and white striped shirt and blue jeans sitting in a yellow chair with a repeating leaf and parrot pattern. Above, text reads (top to bottom): ‘A musical adaptation of the best-selling book by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler. Charlie Cook’s Favourite Book.’ Below this text, a crocodile tears apart a book. Other books lie on the right side of the crocodile in the grass.

Charlie Cook’s Favourite Book

  • Show Information

Based on the original book Charlie Cook’s Favourite Book – written by Julia Donaldson and illustrated by Axel Scheffler.

Charlie loves reading. Especially books about pirates. But his sister hates it – it’s boring! Can Charlie convince her that reading is fun? Perhaps if she read a book about a pirate, who is reading a book about Goldilocks, who is reading a book about a knight…

Come and delve into a range of books with Charlie Cook, brought to life with puppetry and enchanting songs, and perhaps you will be able to help his sister discover the wonderful world inside a book…
