The Family Field

with Childrens Author Tamsyn Murray

Tamsyn Murray is an award-winning, bestselling author of 18 books for children and teens, and a few more for adults. She has performed at many well-known literary festivals, from Hay-on-Wye to Dubai, and regularly runs story workshops in schools to inspire a love of reading. Her books have been translated into more than fifteen languages, selling well over a million copies. This makes her sound serious and dull but she really is very silly and likes nothing better than making children laugh.

Introducing the World's Worst Balloon Modeller for her first visit to Wilderness Festival! Join award-winning, bestselling children's author Tamsyn Murray (Completely Cassidy, Tanglewood Animal Park, Snug as a Bug and much more) for fun and funny interactive storytelling workshops suitable for boys and girls of all ages, book readings and Q&A. Actual story plots depend on how silly the audience gets but expect lions and tigers and dragons, plus the odd balloon creation if all else fails. Just swords and poodles, please - strictly no Rainbow Unicorn requests. Thankfully, she's much better at inspiring brilliant stories than balloon modelling so bring your dreamers along to whip up some terrific tales and find out just what it takes to be a very silly author.
