Praise for The Note

“It has something of the Little Prince about it.” (Fiona Robertson, editor, Watkins Press)

“Great first impression.” (Rev Mary Hawes, National Children’s and Youth adviser, C of E)

“Well... it's just sheer delight. I think you may have a winner.” (Jonathan Gunson, best-selling author and marketing expert, New Zealand)

“A mesmerising, thought-provoking and tinglingly emotive story, so beautifully read. Every listener will find him or herself looking for that silvery note. Just gorgeous.” (Karen Sullivan, founder, Orenda Books)

The Note is a real delight.

A wonderful short piece. Beautifully narrated against a background musical accompaniment.

Stop for a few minutes. Close your eyes. Listen on headphones, and take it in.

Superb!
