A Pooping Dinosaur & Daisy Trouble Draw-Along

Garry Parsons β€” award-winning illustrator and the artistic genius behind The Dinosaur That Pooped series β€” comes to The Book Hotel for an unforgettable morning of drawing, storytelling and general mayhem.

In this hands-on session, Garry will guide children through drawing their favourite characters step by step, bringing them to life on the page. Whether it's a pooping dinosaur, the irrepressible Daisy, or something of their very own imagination, every child goes home with something brilliant to show off.

Funny, warm, and brilliantly interactive β€” this is a session children won't stop talking about.
