Then on Saturday April 24th Emma will be launching her new collection of children's poetry at the festival.  The book is beautifully illustrated with the weird and whacky work of Catherine Pascall Moore.  Come along to this free event in the Children's Marque at 3.00pm.  The young and young at heart will all be welcome.
