The Travelling Restaurant launched in Wellington
The Travelling Restaurant by Barbara Else was launched by Jane Parkin at The Children’s Bookshop in Wellington last evening.
The Bookman is advised it was a large and wonderfully warm and supportive crowd, and that the event proved a very enjoyable celebration of Barbara’s novel for children.
