Denzil the Mouse

One to Three

Tuesday, 20 December 2022 - 7 minutes

Actor John Rhys-Davies reading Katherine Crowe's magical children's story 'Denzil The Mouse'. The recording has been rediscovered and remastered - with a little added musical ambience - by Christy DeHaven to play out as part of our special Christmas programming. 

Katherine is pictured in Hospice Isle of Man in 2014, with John at her side. He visited Kath along with Christy and Dave Armstrong - from DAM Productions Isle of Man - so they could play her the recording made at the Douglas based studio.

The characters in the book were designed by Katherine's children, then illustrated by Jacqui Mulvagh and the book was originally released to help raise funds for Hospice. Remaining copies are now available at Smelliz in the old bank building in Castletown, Cranky's Coffee IOM in Peel and Arty Barista opposite the Manx Arms in Onchan (where you could meet Jacqui Mulvagh - Illustration & Design in person!)
