25 Christmas + Autumn PICTURE BOOKS HAUL | The Works | Vlogtember 19

I recommend 'The Nutcracker'. I try to read it each year around Christmas, snuggle down with the tree lights on and the ballet music in the background. I would love to see the ballet one day but I haven't yet!

I would also love to see a the ballet one day too but never have yet and I haven't ever seen a ballet show but would love too. Such a nice idea to read it with music, I'll definitely be pinching that idea.

@@hannahtaybooks I've seen a couple of Matthew Bourne's dance productions and they are stunning. He quite often either takes a traditional ballet but puts a twist on it or takes a story that isn't dance related and turns it into one. He does have a production of the Nutcracker that I'd love to see, it's just not been near me yet :)

Hi Hannah, I think I've been subscribed for what must be close to a decade(??), but was too lazy/shy to comment then. I remember uni book hauls, Anne Boleyn, Beatrix Potter museum and Essex. Recently popped back into my sub box and saw your Vlogtember videos, and it's so cool to see you're a Mum now! So much is different but still a BP fan then :) tbh you were always different from most of the rash of Brit-tube vloggers in that era of YT bc you always came over uttely unpretentious and full of joy, so I'm sure you're going to be a great mum. Made my day to see you are still here. Hope you're well, sorry if that seemed strange, I thought you might like to know :)
