Di Stori Di Yw Hon / Tell Your Own Story

Once upon a time there was a cheeky fairy. Or was it an unruly ostrich? Or a mischievous monkey? You decide which character you want to follow through this very funny story.

Together, you can choose where they live, what they wear, and the various silly things they do. What will happen to them in the end? There are 60 story variations if you choose all the different combinations! 

This book is great for getting young children involved and focused on the story. There are lots of decisions to make and items to point out in the pictures, which encourages conversations about choice. The adult can model choosing a character and then ask the child who they choose. This gives the child agency, which can help to maintain their interest.

There is enough of a story to pull the readers through the pages, while the bright, energetic illustrations mean it’s fun to pore over without the words too. All the silly action makes this a super fun book to share with toddlers and young children. For fans of the You Choose series. 

This edition is in Welsh, with the English text at the back. There is an English edition too.
