The Adventures of Owen and Perry

Over the years and many long and pleasurable walks in the beautiful Cotswold countryside around the village of Blockley, one of the things I love to do is collect sticks along the way which remind me of various animal shapes and characters.

My family and I thought it would be a nice idea to plant our characterful sticks amongst our wildflower meadow at the top of our rather neglected garden and this was the inspiration for my story, "The Adventures of Owen and Perry".

Owen the Owl and Perry the Pelican are best friends and, with help from their friends, they endeavour to find a way to overcome the evil wolves who are threatening to attack and eat them and their friends. They set out to locate and solve clues to find and unlock the "magic wolf stone" which breaks the evil wolves curse and saves them all from their impending doom. The clues bring alive the rich history and characters from the past who once lived and thrived in our beautiful village of Blockley.

Our neighbours and my parents helped me write my story which really helped me focus and stay positive during the COVID 19 lockdown and the difficulties of isolation. My time spent in our garden and writing my story have made me connect much more with nature and it has given me a lot of pleasure sharing my story and imagination with my family, friends and neighbours.

I would like to share my story to encourage us all to use storytelling to connect with nature and our community.
