The Gruffalo songs

Julia writes songs as well as stories. You can find a lot of her songs in this beautifully illustrated book, A Treasury of Songs. It includes a QR code that takes you to a website where you can hear Julia singing the songs with some great musicians.

Below you can watch videos of Julia performing songs from some of your favourite stories. Her husband Malcolm plays guitar and sings along. Maybe you’d like to sing along too. Click on an image to choose a song and don’t forget to turn up the sound!

You might notice some songs in Makaton. The Makaton Charity have been delighted to work with Julia on The Gruffalo and Monkey Puzzle songs and have also developed some guides to using Makaton signs and symbols when reading the books. You can find them here: Monkey Puzzle Makaton guide, Gruffalo Makaton guide.
