Come and meet local author and illustrator, Thomas Taylor and explore the world of Eerie-on-Sea.
When Thomas first moved to the seaside, he quickly discovered that coastal towns have a strange character of their own in the winter months. When the ice cream kiosks are closed and the bucket-and-spade tourists are gone, darkness and the weather claim the town. Only people with a good reason (or a very bad one) go down onto the beach then, while on windy days you can barely walk upright. At other times sea mist creeps into the streets, full of hidden things that seem to peer in at you through your windows as you stoke up the fire.
Exploring these ideas in his imagination, it didn't take long for the fictional town of Eerie-on-Sea to begin to grow. If you haven't visited Eerie-on-Sea before, this is your chance to discover a little bit about Herbert Lemon, lost-and-founder at the Grand Nautilus Hotel, and his brilliant friend Violet Parma, along with the legend of the Malamander and more. Thomas might also tell you about his very special link to Harry Potter.
Children 8 and under must be accompanied by an adult.
