Storytime with Author Jane Riordan

Celebrate 100 years of Winnie‑the‑Pooh with a very special storytelling event at Tatton Park. Join acclaimed author Jane Riordan as she invites families on a magical adventure to the Hundred Acre Wood, bringing Pooh and friends to life through a joyful storytime session.

During the session, children will enjoy a specially chosen Winnie‑the‑Pooh story, discover how stories are created, and learn how to draw the Bear of Very Little Brain. After each session, there will be an opportunity to purchase the beautiful new editions of Winnie‑the‑Pooh: Once There Was a Bear and Winnie‑the‑Pooh: Tales from the Forest, and have them signed by Jane.
