Meet the Author: Abie Longstaff’s Fairytale Hairdresser (06/04/2015)

Fairytales are timeless. They enchant readers from generation to generation. Fairytales are filled with a wonderful cast of classic characters as well as beautiful illustrations (which, in this case, have a contemporary feel to them), and will always fascinate young children.

In The Fairytale Hairdresser series, author Abie Longstaff has given each of the familiar characters such as Rapunzel, Sleeping Beauty, Snow White, Father Christmas and Cinderella a new look and a new life.

Come and meet Abie Longstaff on 6 April 2015. She will tell her new version of the Rapunzel and Cinderella story. She will also share with you how a book is actually made.

Don't miss it!

About the Author:

Abie Longstaff is the eldest of six children and grew up in Australia, Hong Kong and France. She knows all about squabbling, chaos and bossing younger sisters around; so she logically began her career as a barrister! She started writing when her children were born. Her favourite childhood books were Hating Alison Ashley, A Little Princess, Mauras Angel and The Black Stallion and she sneakily reads them again sometimes. Abie lives in North London with her family and a very pesky cocker spaniel who chews the post.
