“reading is magic and magic is for everyone”
Cressida Cowell

The Boswell Children’s Festival has joined forces with other amazing book festivals to bring you an all-star line-up of authors and illustrators for six days of FREE digital events for schools and families.

Inspired by UK Waterstones Children’s Laureate Cressida Cowell’s key message “reading is magic and magic is for everyone” book festivals across the globe have teamed up to create an online festival so that young people don’t have to miss out on seeing their favourite authors and illustrators this year.
