We are not wholly bad or good
Who live our lives under Milk Wood
And Thou, I know, wilt be the first
To see our best side, not our worst.

In this enchanting illustrated adaptation, Cerys Matthews brings Dylan Thomas's beloved classic to new life. This is a bedtime story like no other; a book to be treasured by many generations; a book for babies and old men alike, for all that are young at heart.

Welcome to the small seaside town of Llareggub.

Here you will find dreamers, workers, singers, sinners, the young, old, blue, bold and a mix of all inbetween.

Here you will meet Captain Cat and Rosie Probert, Mr Organ Morgan and Mrs Ogmore-Pritchard, Nogood
Boyo, Mog and Myfanwy.

Here you will watch a day in their lives play out - from a dark, moonless night to a morning that is busy as bees; from a sunny, slow lulling afternoon to a deep, drifting dusk.

So, to begin at the beginning . . .©2022 Dylan Thomas and Cerys Matthews (P)2022 Orion Publishing Group Limited

Cerys’ reading of her “reimagining” of Dylan Thomas’ Under Milk Wood is absolutely wonderful.
The voices of the characters are brilliantly and humorously done, and it is a joy to hear Cerys’ story telling and singing along as she goes.
Perfect for adults and children alike.
I have bought several copies of the book with it’s fantastic illustrations as presents too.

Absolutely magical

I just wish this had been the full length. The reading was magnificent and so lyrical, this is the best reading of Under Milk Wood I have heard it really brought the story to life.

Wonderful
