Come along and create your own new monster with the help of illustrator Tom Morgan-Jones. There will be draw-alongs full of monster fun, top illustrator tips and you will have the chance to create your own monster story. Fun for all the family, grown ups are welcome to join in too!


Tom has illustrated over 80 books for children. He’s also had his work appear on the side of milk cartons, on top of cakes, all over satirical board games, inside museums, on the outside of schools, behind bands and poets, on chocolate bars and the back of buses, all the way around tins of dog biscuits and Norway’s National football stadium. Recently he has made a piece of art that a university plans to send to the Moon, so you will be in safe hands!
