The Monster Book Lunch is totally booked out for this weekend's Mountain to Sea Festival.

Mountains to Sea Festival 7-12th September

If you are like me and you love, Love, LOVE books you have to come along to the 2010 Mountains to Sea DLR Book Festival. The line-up is amazing; no fewer than four former Booker Prize-winners will be there. But that's not the best bit...

The best is saved for you guys, the line up for children is outstanding including Kate DiCamillo,author of because of Winn-Dixie. PJ Lynch, Sarah Webb, Judi Curtain, Tommy Donbavand, me and lots of your favourite authors will be there.

To celebrate 30 years of Walker Books there will be a Monster Book Lunch on Saturday 11th from 12-3.15pm where you can come along and meet, chat and have lunch with the Authors and Illustrators. Wow! So if you love books and talking about books you just have to come along!

I am going to bring loads of notebooks, sketches, doodles, dummy books, so you can have sneaky peek into how to make illustrations for books. There's a goody bag for each one of you too to take away. You can book here.

On Sunday kid-power is going to take over Town Hall!

Turn into a Wild Thing and meet me there! Drawing, workshops, and roaring for all ages and it's all free.

See you there!
