Suffolk artist’s illustrated books go on display! New display at Christchurch Mansion, Ipswich Open until 15th April 2012 FREE Admission A new display is now on show in the China Room at Christchurch Mansion, Ipswich until 15th April 2012. This new display celebrates twins Janet and Anne Grahame Johnstone, imaginative illustrators, who lived and worked in Badingham, Suffolk. They worked together for over thirty years, producing over five thousand illustrations and bringing to life a range of children’s books which have been translated into many languages and enjoyed the world over. Having illustrated many volumes of fairy stories, myths and legends, nursery rhymes and prayers, they reached an even wider audience by producing a large amount of artwork for TV programmes such as Andy Pandy and Bill and Ben, the Flowerpot Men. In 1956, Dodie Smith invited Janet and Anne to illustrate her first children’s book, The Hundred and One Dalmatians. Anne created an elegant Cruella De Vil, whilst Janet used Dodie’s own Dalmatians as models to create convincing canine characters. Mary May, an author of five books illustrated by Anne Grahame Johnstone, recently gifted her large collection of Janet and Anne Grahame Johnstone books, puzzles, greetings cards and original illustrations to the collections of Colchester and Ipswich Museum Service. This display was created by Sylvia Cox and John Gowen who are working at Colchester and Ipswich Museums as Heritage Documentation trainees. This exhibit shows the achievements of the Grahame Johnstone sisters, virtually unknown as Suffolk artists. It certainly is an enchanting and heart warming display of children’s books, puzzles and original illustrations. Well worth a visit! Christchurch Mansion in Christchurch Park, Ipswich, Suffolk, IP4 2BE Open: Tuesday – Sunday, 10am to 5pm FREE Admission .

I Capture the Castle TG
ST. MARTIN’S GRIFFIN TEACHER’S GUIDE I Capture the Castle by Dodie Smith “This book has one of the most charismatic narrators I’ve ever met. Seventeen-year-old Cassandra Mortmain captures the castle in her insightful, witty journal entries.”—J. K. Rowling 352 pages • 0-312-20165-6 TO THE TEACHER One of the most beloved coming-of-age novels of our time, I Capture the Castle is the classic tale, told in diary form, of six months in the life of Cassandra Mortmain, “This is a a perceptive young lady who lives with her poor, socially outcast family in a crum- treasure that you will want bling castle in the English countryside. Funny, candid, and very bright—and ever to share.” optimistic in spite of her bleak surroundings—Cassandra is a charming and in- —Children’s stantly likable narrator. Her story is told entirely in the first-person voice of her Literature journal entries, which offer lively portraits of a unique if quirky family. “I am writing this journal,” Cassandra explains on page 4, “to teach myself how to write a novel—I intend to capture all our characters and put in conversations.” Her father is also a writer—indeed, his first and only book was deemed a masterpiece— but his long, acute case of writer’s block has wrought financial hardship on the Mortmain family. As the novel begins, life in the castle is never dull but often dif- ficult; even furniture and books are scarce. Alongside her brilliant yet mysterious fa- ther James, her beautiful sister Rose, her artistically off-beat stepmother Topaz, her brother Thomas, and the family’s longtime gardner Stephen, Cassandra has little food to eat, few clothes to wear, and no electricity to read by.

Solomon the Wonder Dog
Solomon the Wonder Dog Read the article and include… 3 bullet… points of information that you found interesting. The Dalmatian is a large breed of dog noted for its unique black or liver spotted coat and was mainly used as a carriage dog in its early days. Its roots trace back to Croatia and its historical region of Dalmatia. Today, this dog remains a well-loved family pet, and many dog enthusiasts enter their pets into kennel club competitions. Solomon History The FCI recognized Croatia as its country of origin, citing several historical sources. The breed had been developed and cultivated chiefly in England. An Englishman Vero Shaw introduced the first unofficial standard for the breed in 1882. In 1890 with the formation of the first Dalmatian Club in England, the standard became official.

Duties The roles of this ancient breed are as varied as their reputed ancestors. They were used as dogs of war, guarding the borders of Dalmatia. To this day, the breed retains a high guarding instinct; although friendly and loyal to those the dog knows and Create a text box with information trusts, it is often aloof with strangers and unknown for each picture.
