The Adventures of Pablo by Barrcroft Weston

This exciting new adventure of Pablo the donkey is set in the real life north Devon village of Clovelly and finds Pablo being given a very important job by the Wizard Of The Northern Shire, to deliver an ancient dragons egg to its mummy who lives on a nearby island. He finds help from some cheeky mice, clever seagulls, a magical mermaid, and his best friend Patrick the squirrel, but needs to overcome challenges on the journey due to the appearance of the notorious pirate Captain Arrr-thur and the ship's cat, one eyed Louie.
In 2020, a leap of faith saw us giving up the luxuries of gas central heating and on-street parking and found us sledging our furniture down the cobbled hill of Clovelly, ready to begin a new life in this gorgeous 19th Century fishing village, high on the beautiful North Devon Coast. It wasn't long before we noticed the black & white photographs around the village of the Clovelly donkeys, who navigated the steep streets to bring villagers their post, and beer, then hauled the famous baskets of herrings from the fishing boats at the harbour. We were lucky enough to find ourselves just a short climb up the cobbles to the old stables where the Clovelly donkeys live and soon started to get to know them and their individual characters. Pablo, the inspiration for our story, was the youngest, cheekiest and funniest member of the family and our bedtime story came to life in the Donkey Shoe Shop. We hope the magic of the story works for you in your homes and sends your little ones off to sleep dreaming of donkeys!
