Writing Big Themes for Small People

Tue 5 Feb 2019

Can children’s books tackle the really difficult subjects – grief, loss and sadness? 

Writers who have taken on these themes – Sita Brahmachari, Joseph Coelho and Alan Durant – discuss with author Giles Paley Phillips why they did, the way children have responded and how stories and poems can help them and their grown-ups through difficult times.

This event is for Age 18+
