Kids Book Club : 'Emerald and the New Arrival' Story + Activities (Ages 5+)

Step into a sparkly, magical world with Nicci at Happy Reading Children’s Bookshop! We’ll be reading Emerald and the New Arrival, the enchanting new story from Harriet Muncaster, part of the much-loved world of Isadora Moon.

After the read-along, children can enjoy themed craft activities inspired by Emerald’s story — perfect for young fans of magic, mischief, and creativity.

Each £5 ticket includes a paperback copy of Emerald and the New Arrival, publishing 7th August with Oxford University Press.
