During his term as the third Children’s Writing Fellow for Northern Ireland, author and illustrator Paul Howard delivered workshops for almost five thousand children in schools in all parts of the country. This is the perfect opportunity for kids aged 4-8 to experience the world of Paul's characters and come up with their own ideas about where Plop (The Owl Who was Afraid of the Dark) and friends might be today.

While collaborating on their own story as a group, the children in the workshop will learn to draw Plop in a dozen or so easy steps (and the grown-ups in the room might learn a thing or two in the process).

Suitable for children of all levels of literacy. In association with the Belfast Book Festival.
