See what the National Literacy Trust has to say about Featherbed Tales:
“Enchanting and attractive picture books and nursery rhymes with sensitive rhythm and rhyme, perfect for little ones learning to develop language, speech and reading.” - Suzanne Stevenson, Project Manager, National Literacy Trust
A recent YouGov survey in 2021 and the National Literacy Trust tell us...
“Half of children don’t like reading”
“Children who are good readers have better life chances”
“Children who don’t know nursery rhymes tend to fall
behind in reading”
We love stories! We love firing imaginations about the world around us, helping little ones discover new worlds and creating the excitement of anticipation.

The power of the spoken word
We all recognise the joy of celebrities narrating audio books, but it is the voices of the people we love and care about which have the most impact on us.
Hearing the voice of a parent increases feelings of wellbeing and reduces stress in children. And it works both ways, with grandparents and absent parents telling us how charming it is to enjoy a storytime narrated by their grandchildren and children in their own unique voices.
And while literacy and speech development is a serious business, reading a story is not! Be fun, be silly, laugh, make mistakes, ask questions and add peoples’ names to your story reading – the more personal, the more fun it will be to listen to!
