Step into the enthralling world of Arthurian legend with Carnegie Medal-winner Kevin Crossley-Holland and former Children’s Laureate Chris Riddell.
Their new book, Arthur the Always King, takes you through King Arthur’s childhood to his final battle, weaving these timeless stories of adventure and chivalry into a breath-taking feat of storytelling. This event will include readings from Crossley-Holland and live illustration from Riddell.
Crossley-Holland’s Arthur trilogy has won worldwide critical acclaim, sold well over a million copies and been translated into 25 languages. He has translated Beowulf from the Anglo-Saxon, and his retellings of traditional tales include Between Worlds, The Penguin Book of Norse Myths and British Folk Tales. Riddell is one of the country’s finest children’s book illustrators and was Children’s Laureate from 2015-17. He has won the Kate Greenaway Medal three times – for Pirate Diary, Gulliver’s Travels and The Sleeper and the Spindle. In recent years he has had success writing and illustrating his own books, including the Ottoline stories and Goth Girl and the Ghost of a Mouse, which won a Costa Book Award.
