You Can Do Anything Tyrone - digital assets and author video

You Can Do Anything, Tyrone! is an out-of-this-world adventure from award-winning actor Sir Lenny Henry and debut illustrator Salomey Doku.

Luckily, Grandad Cleveland is on hand to show him that with determination and imagination, Tyrone can do ANYTHING. In fact, why stop at the moon when there’s the rest of the world and a whole universe to explore!
