There are many different ways to tell a story and one is to dramatise your favourite book. This event offers a unique opportunity to work with three leading picture book writers. Working in a group, you help devise a short play from a picture book. At the end, your parents and friends get the chance to watch the final performance. Break a leg! Tickets admit one participating child and two spectators. The final performance will commence at 11.30am. Ages 9–12. Part of Edinburgh International Book Festival
