Frank Cottrell-Boyce: A British Childhood
Frank Cottrell-Boyce, Noëlle Cobden
Venue T 17 Aug
11.00 1hr

What does it mean to be young in Britain today? As Waterstones Children’s Laureate, Frank Cottrell-Boyce has met children from many – often precarious – backgrounds, and A British Childhood is his piercing examination of how community, and connection, are fraying. This urgent conversation sees the inaugural Children’s Booker Prize chair sharing illuminating, real stories from Britain’s homes, schools, and streets – and a message of hope too. Chaired by Noëlle Cobden.
