The Scottish Friendly Children's Book Tour
 |
The Scottish Friendly Children's Book Tour brings authors and illustrators to a city, town hall or school near you.
We have been touring children's authors and illustrators for 10 years now and have visited every area in Scotland. We bring all these famous authors to schools to talk to you and your friends, sign your books and answer your questions about reading, writing and their own work. Ask your teacher to get in touch with us and we might be able to come to your school soon!
