THE Gruffalo himself will be popping in to a local library to give children a half-term treat.
Chipping Ongar Library will host the popular children's book character on Monday, February 15, at 10.30am when it holds a day of Gruffalo activities and stories for primary school children.
The library has something for adults too, when it accepts a visit from the Essex Records Office on Thursday, February 25.
People interested in Essex's history can drop-in any time from 10am to 2pm.
