Roald Dahl Funny Prize Event

‘Laughter is the sun that drives winter from the human face.’ So said Victor Hugo (and he should know). Come and bask in the warm glow of 2011 Funny Prize winner, Liz Pichon for The Brilliant World of Tom Gates and shortlisted author, Rose Impey for The Get Rich Quick Club as they discuss all things humorous, amusing and how comedy is the hardest thing to write. Order will be kept by the irrepressible Philip Ardagh, previous winner and judge (although not the same year as that would have been wrong). Ages 8+. Part of Edinburgh International Book Festival
