I am so excited to have been asked to do another show with The Children’s Bookshow for a third time! This year I will be in Portsmouth. I will be presenting a jam-packed show full of live drawing and stories, bananas and laughs. Later on I will be visiting the audience in their own schools for a super fun art workshop.

See you all in Portsmouth soon!

Join us for a morning of interactive stories and illustration with the award-winning illustrator and author, Yasmeen Ismail. Children will love watching Yasmeen draw live, and listening to some of her stories. Yasmeen will share secrets of her work: the materials she uses to create her books, where she gets her ideas and her top tips for budding writers and illustrators. There'll be time for the audience to ask questions, and every child attending gets a free book to take home and keep.
