About this event

Join author Kate Rolfe for an event about Wiggling Words, celebrating its Carnegie Illustration Medal shortlisting. Suitable for ages 3+. From the creator of the Waterstones Prize-shortlisted Wolf and Bear, an inspiring story about a child lost in a forest of letters. The perfect book to share with children with dyslexia and other neurodivergence to encourage problem-solving and build confidence. Verbs, also known as action words, can be pesky things to master and nobody understands the struggle better than the young child in Wiggling Words. Skip, trip, fumble and fall with them as they discover that even though words can be tricky, they can be fun too!
