Welcome to the Children’s Bookshow 2008!

This year our theme will be picture books and we shall be bringing the best writers and illustrators from the UK and abroad to theatre venues around the country. The writers will include Michael Rosen, Anushka Ravishankar and storyteller Daniel Morden amongst others.

The new tour will be complete by the end of April, so please look at the website then to see the new venues and writers taking part. Meanwhile, if you’d like to see what other resources there are in the world of children’s books, go to our thanks page and you’ll find a whole range of useful organisations.

If you’d like to look at our work in 2008 in Newcastle with Eva Ibbotson
and Lilli Thal at Seven Stories, and Jim Riordan at Newton please have a look at this movie
produced by the school.

Alongside the tour is a series of 40 free schools workshops this year in primary
schools in Bexhill, London, Bristol, Manchester, Oxford, Newcastle, Liverpool,
and Ilkley so if you’re a teacher and would like a writer to come into your school,
please contact Kate Tull at Katetull@hotmail.com
Places go fast, so please book early!
We look forward to bringing you more news soon…
