When we had to close our doors at the end of March we weren’t sure when, how or if we would be returning. Now that we are slowly opening up and looking at what is out there. There are lots of things online which is great, (and we’re planning some online activities too!) but there comes a point when we’ve had enough of screens, or dodgy Internet, or fighting for the computer screen. So we’ve decided to commission a short graphic novel as sometimes it’s nice to have an actual thing!

Our first short self published graphic novel is called ‘Me and My Shadow’ and was created by Edward Taylor, a graphic novel artist and one half of street theatre company The Whalley Range All Stars.

It is ideal for children and young people aged 5+
