Meet Harriet and Will

Harriet Cooper and her best friend, Will Taylor, research a school history project in their local library.

Harriet’s eyes are drawn to a picture of an ancient silver ring in an old book….and then something extraordinary happens!

The two friends are drawn into time-slip adventures galore in three ancient locations. Can they return in time to complete their school project?

Book Launch Fun

This is a time-slip story suitable for ages 9-13. There will be fun activities for the children and some giveaways.

Smithton author Debra Williams will present the launch, along with her co-presenter Harriet Cooper, the character from her novel.

As Debra is a seasoned puppeteer, Harriet is her right-hand puppet assistant!

There will be paperback books for sale and giveaways on the day. Children will also be given a colouring picture of the book cover to complete themselves.
