Pic. Joseph Coelho is laureating!
Growing up in a family of birdwatchers (one relative even moved to Shetland for this hobby!) - when M. G. Leonard mentioned birdspotting my ears #Twitch ed (see what I did there?!)
The kids loved hearing feathery facts and playing bird bingo!
You could say BarnesKidsLitFest is a hoot! 🦉
The children got ten out of ten (after a few goes!) for singing and Paul Linnet got A LOT of thumbs up and “It was AMAAAAAZING”s from them (which it was!)
Another fabulous BarnesKidsLitFest event at Rose Theatre in Kingston (who by the way have an incredible team!) 🥳
M. G. Leonard BarnesKidsLitFest Walker Books Good luck - we were there this morning for Joseph coehlo- really great experience…very interactive, the kids loved it 🥰 📖 🖊️ big thx also to Rose Theatre Kingston

Sunday 23 June just cannot (CAN. NOT) come fast enough folks because we'll be hanging out with Laura Ellen Anderson right here at the UK's biggest kids' books party! Grab your tickets while you can! barneskidslitfest.org/whats-on/
This festival line up is utterly enchanting & I’m so excited to volunteer with them!
Largely because it means I get to see the best people loving what they do & sharing it with those who love it eg The magnificent Lucas Maxwell & students sharing their #DungeonsAndDragons joy!
🎲🧙♂️🐉⚔️🏰🏹Lucas Maxwell is bringing #dungeonsanddragons back to the UK's biggest kids' books party on Sunday 23 June. THIS IS HOW WE ROLL⬇️barneskidslitfest.org/whats-on/
We just don't know what you're going to say when you have to tell the kids you haven't got tickets for Liz Pichon at the UK's biggest kids' books party on Saturday 22 June so you'd better get booking! barneskidslitfest.org/whats-on/
