Swapna Haddow: Telling Tales (Kidsfest)

Free event for KidsFest! Come and meet award-winning UK author Swapna Haddow and hear her talk about her brand new book Dave Pigeon (Royal Coo!). Come along and ask questions and find out what it takes to be an author.

Join Dave Pigeon and his sidekick Skipper in this laugh out loud series of fast-paced stories full of flapping feathers and pigeon chaos. With black and white illustrations by the superbly talented Sheena Dempsey throughout, this hilarious series follows the lives of two pigeons as they battle mean cats, evil inventors and pilfering parrots. All the while proving that all you need is friendship (and biscuits).

Suitable for ages 8-12. Books will be available for purchase and author signing at the event thanks to Scorpio Books.
