Our Read at the Just So Festival
We'll be bringing a touch of the Central Asian desert to the woods of Staffordshire this Friday when we head off to the Just So Festival to read aloud from The Unforgotten Coat in a Mongolian yurt!

We'll be bringing along two children from the Wirral to read with us and share the experience, and we want as many people as possible to enjoy the story so if you're planning on coming then make sure you pay us a visit - you can pick up a free copy of the book and maybe even try reading aloud to the rest of the group! We'll be doing readings at 1.30, 2.30 and 3.30pm so there will be plenty of opportunities to get involved or just sit back and enjoy a good story.
The festival runs from the 19th-21st of August and takes place in the woodlands of Barnswood, near Leek. It's aimed at children and families and includes a number of creative activities and performances from across the arts, taking in music, cinema, dance and literature. We hope to see you there!
