Join us as we meet Ross Collins author and illustrator of the Bear and Mouse books, and receive a copy of their latest adventure - We disagree about this Tree

We're excited to launch our new library card, featuring an image created by Glasgow-based author and illustrator Ross Collins and inspired by his popular 'There's a Bear on my Chair' book series.

Come along to our exclusive free event on Saturday 23 November at The Mitchell Library 10am. 

Find out more about how Ross came up with the new design in our jam-packed session including:
 

  • Exclusive story-time from a Bear and Mouse book
  • Drawing demo of characters from the series
  • All children attending will receive a FREE GIFT of Ross's Bear and Mouse book, We Disagree About This Tree 

 
And there's more...Bookbug will also be there to meet the children as part of a special Bookbug session!
