Starting school this Autumn? Discover what happens when Little Acorn decides that it's fun after all to visit new places and to meet different people!
Author and illustrator Adam Stower introduces his new picture book, Little Acorn: A Long Way Down, and explores its message of being open to new challenges and experiences - a great story to share with young children starting at their new school this month!
Adam also shows us how to draw Little Acorn in this video, and encourages children to head out into the woods and see what they can find to inspire new artwork at home.
