Seven children's stories inspired by the history of Norfolk’s streets and sites, traced through Norfolk Heritage Centre

On every street there is a story. Roll up, roll up for a circus adventure in Edwardian Yarmouth, merry-go-race through King’s Lynn history with fabulous fairground animals, get swept back in time with the marvellous mice of Wymondham, meet the magical medieval dragon of Norwich and the musical Owl of Holt, discover the magnificent street procession of a Tudor Queen and get ready to be bedazzled by the delightful dancer of a Georgian theatre. Inspired by collections at Norfolk Heritage Centre and the history of Norfolk streets, this book consists of imaginative short stories where love and friendship take centre stage.
