‘Snorty the Pig’, the well-loved giant mascot at Hatton Country World near Warwick has launched his first children’s book. The book, entitled ‘Magical happenings at Hatton Country World’, has been aided and abetted by Arabella Arkwright, co-owner of Hatton.

Importantly, each story has a moral and lesson for children to learn. Three of the Staff at Hatton are featured within the book – Farm Park Manager Richard Craddock, Farm Park Assistant Manager Alice Latham, and Farm assistants Wiz & Mr Holly. The book also features lots of the farmyard characters, including one of the guineapigs ‘Randy Jr’, who is the son of the world-famous ‘Randy’ guineapig who fathered 400 children when he somehow got into the female pen!

Arabella Arkwright said, “Snorty and I are delighted to launch our first children’s book! Snorty loves reading stories to pre-school children, so it made complete sense for Snorty to write his own book based at Hatton with staff and farmyard characters that children will recognize from their adventures here. All the great children’s stories have a moral, and from each of our stories there is a lesson to be learnt. This gives Snorty and I particular pleasure and makes the book a thoroughly worthy Christmas present.”

The book is available to purchase either at Hatton Adventure World’s Toy Mad store priced at £8.95, or via the Adventure world website for £11.45 including postage and packing. Hatton Country World is open every day throughout the year (excluding Christmas Day & Boxing Day) from 10am to 5.30pm. For more information, please visit the website at www.hattonworld.com
