This week we are delighted to be hosting not one, but two brilliant creatives; author Swapna Haddow and illustrator Dapo Adeola.
Swapna Haddow is the writer of the popular prize-winning Dave Pigeon and Bad Panda series and Dapo Adeola is an award-winning illustrator, who co-created and illustrated the picture book Look Up! And is the writer of the book Hey You! An Empowering Celebration of Growing Up Black
Together they have created the wonderful and heartwarming picture book My Dad is a Grizzly Bear which was released last year. This month they released their second collaboration My Mum is a Lioness.
