Kate at the Port Eliot Festival in Cornwall, England

She went unannounced just to read stories to children!

She really got into the books. Real actress right there! She also reminds me of Emma Thompson in these pictures. I think she's a mini Emma in terms of personality. Unfortunately the pictures have labels all over them when you click to enlarge, but hopefully there are better versions out there.

Vodianova, merci !!! Ces photos sont absolument géniales, c'est là qu'on voit qu'elle a gardé les pieds sur terre... c'est adorable ce qu'elle fait.
Elle a l'air d'être à fond dans sa lecture, ce n'est pas une actrice pour rien.

Thanks vodianova !!

J'ai ajouté 21 photos dans la galerie ! Elles sont taguées, mais le tag est moins voyant que sur isopix !

Haha j'adore!! j'ai bien rigolé en regardant les photos! Comme vous dites, elle est pas actrice pour rien! A fond dedans!
C'est bien d'avoir fait ça je trouve. J'aurais aimé faire partie des spectateurs
Elle a le look du festivalier avec ses bottes en caoutchou en plus

J'ai trouvé une photo HQ non taguée !!

Apparemment, Kate a lu tout le roman !! Elle est restée 90 min sur scène et les enfants l'ont adoré (tu m'étonnes ! Les p'tits veinards ! lol !) !

90min ?!! Bah dis donc! Il faut tenir!
Ouais c'est clair que les enfants devaient être enchantés, vu qu'elle y mettait de la vie et tout ... c'était pas endormant!

Merci pour la photo !

Cornwall Community News reported on it:

Festivalgoers in St Germans got a special treat this weekend as A-list celeb Kate Winslet dropped in to read from her childrens book ‘Mr Gum’.

The world-famous movie star thrilled an audience of excited kids, admiring mums and apparently ‘drooling dads’ with some gutsy clowning around to bring her work to life.

Lit-festie Chiara Allsup, 24, said: “Kate was fantastic: she acted out all the characters in her book and did all the different voices for different characters.

“She was leaping around the stage and the kids all loved it. All the mums were saying how lucky her kids were and there was a fair few ‘drooling Dads’ in the crowd. “But it was lovely.”

Xa Shaw Stewart, 25, from Edinburgh, added: “She was incredible – really animated. We thought she’d just do excerpts but she I think she read the whole book.

“She showed up in just wellies and a black top with no make-up on but she still looked wonderful. She was doing Cockney voices and posh voices for all the different characters: it was really imaginative, there was a villain who fired lightning balls out his nose and everything.”

Make sure you send us all that exclusive video of our Kate jumping around the Port Eliot stage! (We’re journalists, so obviously we missed it. No change there)

Mia and Joe were there in the audience! Kate thanks them at the end, saying they always ask her to read the story to them every day. Do you think Mia is the little girl in the blue shirt who stood up at 4:53? Awww so cute.

YEAH !! Thanks a lot vodianova !!!

Kate est trop marrante !!! J'aimerai bien qu'elle me lise des histoires pour m'endormir !!

Oui, je pense que c'est Mia que l'on voit en robe bleue car quand Kate remercie ses enfants, elle indique cette direction !!

merci pour les photos et videos

j'adoooore la tete quelle fais elle a vraiment du donner le ton et tout

les bottes en caoutchou par contre j'aime moyen

Aaah trop bieeeen !! C'est un peu difficile de suivre ce qu'elle raconte vu qu'on a pas le début mais c'est excellent comment elle fait ça! Je suis pas étonné que les petits ont adorés!
Et oui à mon avis c'est Mia qu'on voit à la fin
