Tami Sussman’s hilarious and heart-warming debut So That Happened … tackles leaving your childhood home and memories behind, how to be a good friend (and realise when you have been a bad one) and most importantly, how to get back up when it feels like the world has knocked you down. Aspiring (and reluctant) writers aged 9-12 are invited to tap into their own creative juices at this exclusive ‘scratch and sniff’ workshop and Q&A hosted by the author.
