Tickets £7. Books will be on sale at the venue and Joseph will be signing copies after the event.

PART OF THE FESTIVAL OF CHICHESTER

There are four events in the childrens section of the festival (K1, K2, K4, K5), along with the Rev. Richard Coles event (SW25), which are curated by the wonderful folks at Childrens BookFest. CBF is a charity dedicated to putting books into the hands of children, authors into their schools and a love of reading into their hearts.

Since 2019 CBF has given almost 28,000 brand new books to local children via signature BookFests, Outreach initiatives and regular donations to FoodBanks. 1 in 8 children eligible for free school meals do not own a book, so theres a long way to go, and each year 100% of funds need to be raised to continue this great work.

CBF events not only offer you and your children some great entertainment: all proceeds from these events will go towards CBFs tough funding target, so please buy a ticket and share the book-love!
