What is Granny and Bean about?
On a blustery day by the sea, Granny and Bean set off for a cheerful adventure. They listen to seabirds, search for treasures in the sand, greet passing dogs and clamber over logs as the waves crash nearby. When the wind grows strong, they find shelter for a cosy teatime treat. Then they gather their favourite shells and stones and make their way home, carrying happy memories of their windy, wonderful day together.
