Events
Part of the fun of being a children’s author is getting to meet young readers and their families. Josie is available for author visits in bookshops and schools. The visits are great fun for all involved. As well as reading her stories to the children, Josie gets the children involved in art and craft activities based around one of her stories. There might even be a treasure hunt with sticker prizes!
“Kept children interested all the way through.”
