Season’s Readings Show 2024: Joseph Coelho, Big Manny and Huw Aaron

Join us in the Puffin Library on Monday 2nd December at 10am, for a 30-minute educational show filled with festive fun!

  • Former Children’s Laureate Joseph Coelho will give a reading of his new Christmas story, The Christmas Tree Mouse, and will be challenging classes to come up with their own chaotic Christmas catastrophe stories.
  • Author of Science is Lit and social media star Big Manny will be teaching us about the elements, and will be sharing an exciting science experiment that you can do as a class!
  • And author and illustrator Huw Aaron will be giving us an exclusive of his yet to be published book, Sleep Tight, Disgusting Blob, with a live draw-a-long to reveal that even the scariest of monsters have boring bedtime routines (…like brushing your fangs!). Huw will inspire your class to dream up boring bedtime routines for their own monsters.
