Cheering up a tearful vampire whilst calming tigers

I knew Bag Books were good but today I really did cheer up a tearful vampire and keep three tigers spellbound!
You may have guessed already but the stories were told at an event where face painting had been one of the attractions. I've been twice this week to tell stories at a get together for looked after children and the looker afterers! The three tigers said they had been earlier in the week! I know my memory is getting worse but I really think I would have remembered if tigers had sat down to listen before!
