The Edinburgh International Book Festival Outreach Programme

Not everybody can make it to Charlotte Square Gardens in Edinburgh, even with subsidised transport. During the festival season, we take some of the children’s authors and illustrators who do an event in the schools programme out on two school visits.

We are very excited by all the authors who have registered interest in participating in this year’s programme – we wish we could have taken them all! Alas, we only had six places.
