Frank Cottrell-Boyce and Nadia Shireen have been shipwrecked on The Island of Brilliant for a year now. They’ve got nothing but hammocks, children’s books and a massive horde of biscuits to help them pass the time.

Today they are just a little bit excited because they’re going to be joined by the most widely and most joyfully read children’s writer in the world.

With tales of snails and gruffalos, giants and broomsticks, join Julia Donaldson as she talks with Frank and Nadia in this live podcast recording about how she creates her unforgettable stories.

Meet & greet*
Nadia Shireen, Frank Cottrell-Boyce and Julia Donaldson will be greeting fans and signing books at the end of the event.
Books will also be available to purchase on the day from The Book Nook’s pop-up.
*Included in ticket price.
