Rusty Fizzbang, vet to magical beasts, needs an apprentice. Ember Spark, looking for adventure, is his newest recruit, along with an unlikely friend called Arno. But keeping magical beasts a secret isn’t an easy task, especially with arch-villain, Jasper Hornswoggle, hot on their heels… Join bestselling children’s author, Abi Elphinstone, as she talks about her new book: Ember Spark & The Thunder of Dragons. Abi will be revealing where she finds her ideas – from shower gel bottles and street signposts to her own adventures in the Arctic and Mongolia – as well as showing kids how to plan their own stories, dream up titles and nail that opening line. This is an event that champions the joy of reading and writing while encouraging kids to be curious, courageous and kind.

Calling all teachers and homeschoolers! I’m doing a FREE virtual event alongside wonderful authors Guy Bass, AM Howell and Nicky Smith Dale for Mr Dilly Presents. We’ll be chatting about our new books (for me, it’s EMBER SPARK & THE THUNDER OF DRAGONS), reading a few sneak-peek passages aloud & answering all of your questions.

Abi Elphinstone will be signing copies of all her books, including her brand new one – EMBER SPARK AND THE THUNDER OF DRAGONS – at Chocolit Bookshop on 9th May 4:30pm.
