Laura Dockrill
Fri 15 Feb 2013
Meet Darcy Burdock, the smart-as-a-whip, funny and fiercely loyal creation of Laura Dockrill. And meet Laura herself, as her wild, dark and colourful imagination gets to work on another Darcy Burdock story.
Laura will entertain with readings from her Darcy Burdock stories – the kind of stories which ponder the unpredictable, like the chances of having human pancakes, or of being kissed by an octopus. More than just an author, Laura’s experience as a performer and a roaming reporter for the Roald Dahl Funny Prize is set to make this event heaps of fun for children and adults alike.
