As well as a fantastic puppet show children will be able to have a go at illustrating poems, making shape poems and poem leaves, as well as using magnetic words.
Where Zebras Go, the author’s first solo poetry collection, takes readers across the savannah, into fairy tale realms, back to the playground and through the seasons, introducing a whole host of animals along the way.
Signed copies of Sue’s book will be available to buy on the day at a reduced price of £3.99.
