Welcome to Bovey Tracey's very first book festival - and this one's for the kids!
Join us for a day full of stories and imagination with some of Britain's very best writers, illustrators and creators.
* Celebrate the launch of Reeve & McIntyre's newest Adventuremice book
* Dive into the wonderful world of Mikey Please's The Cafe at the Edge of the Wood
* Delight in Serena Patel's charming & pet-loving Pia's Pet Club adventures
* Explore the creepy Victorian underworld of Zohra Nabi's Cassia Thorne Mysteries
* Revel in the vibrant, joyful chaos of Neill Cameron's Donut Squad
After each interactive session, these amazing authors & illustrators will hang out to sign copies of their books. Visit the Festival Book Table on the day to pick up something special.
In addition to our author & illustrator sessions at Wickham Hall, stop by the Pavilion at the Bovey Tracey Cricket Club for even more bookish fun from 10AM-4PM, including story time, crafts, and special meet & greets. All free and open to the whole community.
If you have a young person in your life who loves to read or draw or write, today is their day!
