About this Event

Join us at Paddington Children's Library for a special reading of Grandpa Kuma in Japan and an origami bear craft activity!

Follow Miko as she travels to Japan to visit Grandpa Kuma. Although she has been practising her Japanese, she is too shy to speak it. But when she finds herself lost in a big, unfamiliar city, Miko must find the confidence to use her voice.

Perfect for children aged 4+ and their families. Babies in arms go FREE!

After the reading, get creative and make your own origami bear to take home.

Copies of Michelle's book will also be available to purchase on the day.
