“Here to stay!”

“Benjamin and Bumper to the Rescue” is wondrously imagined and produced. Truly a work of art and love on every page: warm and cosy dangers infused with childhood’s joys and fears. All brought to life through pages of an exquisitely crafted and photographed drama in actual mediaeval settings in Provence and brought to life through a charming “dramatis personae”. Each actor magically stitched as if by a Beatrix Potter mouse: Benjamin (a young mouse), Bumper (the helpful elephant), Lord Pouncelot (a crafty white cat), and Mrs Middlemouse (Benjamin’s mother and ultimate peace maker). As I watched my 10-year-old(!) granddaughter put aside her knitting (a current passion) to immerse herself in Molly Coxe’s latest book, I knew Benjamin and Bumper were here to stay and rescue many a Christmas! – James Stuart, Le Paradou, Provence, France
