Last year we took the Festival to bookhaus with a packed shop of kids & adults getting spookily inspired by Alex Cotter in a workshop based on #TheHouseontheEdge . We're delighted to be returning this year with another spooky session and we promise it will be epic! #lovebooks
Thank you Alex Cotter for a wonderful day at Northleaze yesterday! The children were so inspired by your workshops and very excited to have the actual โHouse on the Edgeโ at school! #WorldBookDay2023 #inspiringyoungwriters

The relationship between Autumn and Lamorna is reminding me of the relationship between Vivien and Alice, Emily Randall-Jones ๐ ๐ป and Alex Cotter. I only hope Lamorna turns out to be a truer friend than Alice was ๐ฌ
