Something a bit different this time… Due to various circumstances we are not able to have an in-person book-signing at the bookshop for JONTY GENTOO’s launch – instead, we have a very special ‘Reading & Drawing’ book launch with both JULIA DONALDSON AND AXEL SCHEFFLER, which will take place at Tottington Manor Hotel & Restaurant. Attendees WILL receive a book pre-signed by Julia AND Axel but we are sorry, there will not be the chance to get books name-dedicated, or to meet the authors in person.after the event.
Join Julia Donaldson and illustrator Axel Scheffler for a special Reading & Drawing book launch event for their stunning new picture book JONTY GENTOO: THE ADVENTURES OF A PENGUIN. Listen to Julia read the wonderful story and watch Axel draw the cute creature characters. Find out some fascinating penguin facts too!
