BOOKSTART Bear will be special guest at The Isle of Books event to make sure parents have received their free books as part of the scheme.

The event, at The Beaches, Sandy Lane, Orford, on Monday from 11am until 1pm, promises to be fun and interactive with the opportunity to take part in a craft activity and enjoy a story from the staff.

There will also be the opportunity to borrow from the wide range of children's books and story tapes from the Isle of Books and to take a look around The Beaches.
