Two small towns, on opposite banks of the same river, want nothing to do with each other. It’s only when a group of Traveling craftspeople arrive that questions are asked and things begin to change.
A new picture book from celebrated Romani storyteller Richard O’Neill about how the power of stories can help us recognize our shared humanity.
Two small towns, on opposite banks of the same river, want nothing to do with each other. No one knows why; that’s the way it’s always been. It’s only when a group of Traveling craftspeople arrive that questions are asked and things begin to change. Shared tales, dances, and food, together with an old storycoat, spark curiosity among the townspeople.
Gradually, almost magically, the children of both towns realize that they have more in common than what keeps them apart. By the time the Travelers leave, a bridge has been formed to join the two communities forever. And the storycoat has a new story to tell.
Richard O’Neill was born and brought up in a large traditional Romani family in the North of England. He is an award-winning storyteller and writer who tells his original stories in schools, museums, libraries and theatres across the UK. A sixth-generation storyteller, he grew up in a vigorous oral storytelling tradition, learning his skills from some of the best Travelling storytellers in England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales. Richard is the author of six children’s books published with Child’s Play, and his stories and plays have been broadcast on BBC Radio to be heard across the world. In 2024, he was awarded an MBE in the New Years Honours List and in 2013, he was the recipient of the National Literacy Hero award. Raquel Martín is a Spanish illustrator based in the beautiful island of Menorca, where she lives with her partner and three kids. She studied in the Pau Gargallo Art School in Barcelona and her work has appeared in children’s books, magazines and publications in many countries around the world.
