Tricky Tales for busy fingers
Sefton Park and Garston Library
A hands on approach to telling tales – using pens and paper, ripping and drawing. Sal Tonge will share stories that have a twist or a trick to them, afterwards you can go and share them with your pals! An ideal workshop for kids who love to fiddle, show off and want some stories that they can remember for the rest of their lives, and perhaps even tell their kids one day!
