John Boyne: Meet the Author
This Autumn will see the publication of John Boyne’s second children’s book, Noah Barleywater Runs Away - a fable inspired by the legend of Pinocchio and featuring beautiful illustrations by Oliver Jeffers. To help celebrate the launch of this highly anticipated title, John will be visiting The Riverbank Arts Centre as part of this year’s national Children’s Book Festival programme.
Those attending will have the chance to hear John read extracts from his new book, as well as ask questions about his career as a writer to date. This event represents a really special opportunity to meet one of Ireland’s foremost children’s authors!
