Join much-loved children's writer and illustrator Nick Sharratt in a family-friendly, fun-filled drawalong for all ages. 

He’ll be sharing his favourite books, introducing you to brand new ones and showing you how to draw lots of exciting characters and create your own ones too! There'll be lots of tips and games along the way.

He’s worked with authors including Julia Donaldson, Michael Rosen and Kes Gray, and he’s illustrated lots of Dame Jacqueline Wilson’s phenomenally popular children’s novels. Nick’s also been awarded a gold Blue Peter badge!
