Come and celebrate the launch of new picture book 'Grobblechops' by author Elizabeth Laird and illustrator Jenny Lucander!

Amir’s worried about the monster under the bed! What if it has huge teeth and growls like a lion? What if it tries to eat him up? And what if the monster has a mum and dad too? But Dad reassures Amir that if the monster family comes to play, then Amir might just make a friend instead. A timeless tale of monsters under the bed, Grobblechops is based on a story by the thirteenth-century poet, philosopher and Sufi mystic Rumi.

Featuring a reading of this fantastic new picture book with award-winning author Elizabeth Laird and a book signing. There will be a panel discussion about Rumi and his stories with author Elizabeth Laird, publisher Delaram Ghanimifard and CLPE's Ann Lazim.
