Book Launch Magic with Ben Mantle

We enjoyed another great event at The Bright Emporium last night. Lucy Rowland and Ben Mantle launched their new picture book, Little Red Reading Hood with Macmillan Children’s Books.

Ben and Lucy were joined by other famous picture book faces, including Fiona Woodcock, Benji Davies, Timothy Knapman and Paul Linnet, who were there to celebrate with them.
