Henley Literary Festival

There is fun to be had for all ages at the Henley Children’s Literary Festival, 2nd to 10th October.  They have a wonderful range of family favourite authors and illustrators joining the festival in Henley, or you can join some virtually from the comfort of your own home.

Stars from the entertainment world include fitness phenomenon Joe Wicks, who presents his first children’s book Burpee Bears, and much-loved broadcaster Clare Balding brings her inspiring non-fiction book Fall Off, Get Back On, Keep Going. Henley favourite Sir Michael Morpurgo is joined by an actress and cellist for a very special performance of Carnival of Animals. They are also joined by fantastic illustrators Chris Riddell and Rob Biddulph. Other fun children’s events include Tom Gates creator Liz Pichon, Rapping Princesses, a writing workshop with Katya Balen, Space Detectives with Dapo Adeola & Mark Powers, Kate Pankhurst’s Great Women Scientists, The Pirate Mums, and Serena Patel’s Granny Trouble. Younger children will love That’s Not My…storytime, Wonderbly story workshop, and even a visit from Elmer the Elephant.
