Nose Magic by Dom Hallett

“Nose Magic” is a heart warming story about a little Sheep with a big dream. A dream to do something different from what everyone expects her to do.

The idea was born during a family trip, while watching a sheep climb the hills and wondering,
“What if one sheep from the field dreamed of something more?”

In her journey to discover who she truly is, Sheep meets Hedgehog, Cow, Crow, and Goat each with their own dreams and worries.
Using her special knitting skills, which she once thought were useless, Sheep helps her friends believe in themselves and follow their own paths.

With gentle repetition , “knit, knit, knit” and “dream, dream, dream”, the story becomes an interactive, comforting read-along, inviting children to join in as they follow Sheep’s magical journey of creativity, kindness, and self-discovery.

Set against the backdrop of rolling hills and cosy villages, Nose Magic also offers a glimpse of real Scottish places like New Cumnock, Wanlockhead and places in between. Families can even follow the sheep’s path or create their own journey as a fun day out, turning Storytime into an adventure with the addition of cut out characters and passport to collect memories.

With soft, crayon-style illustrations and a heart warming message, Nose Magicinvites children (and grown-ups) to imagine their own glowing colours and the dreams they carry inside.
