Julia PattonJulia’s latest artistic adventure, The Curious Tale of Fi-Rex is a collaborative story written by celebrities to raise money for BBC’s Children in Need. Traveling from a rustic wood shed in a field in the middle of Northumberland this fun children’s picture book illustrator is bringing her scribbly pencils and scissors with her… Prepare for dinosaur headbands – with fearsome sparkles and pompoms!

David Litchfield With the hugely successful release of his beautiful, debut author-illustrated book, The Bear and The Piano, David will be leading a bear fill craft session with masks and cut-out bears galore!

Fred BluntFred never wanted to be an astronaut or drive a train when he grew up. Right from the beginning he knew he wanted to draw silly pictures for a living. Curated from his compulsive doodling, Captain Falsebeard in A Very Fishy Tale is an incredible book and a must read. Get ready to transform yourself into a swashbuckling Pirate of the seven seas.
