Join us for an exclusive Preschool Storytime with special guest Dr Ann Goeth launching her delightful children's book, Bush-Turkey Needs a Friend.

Tom is a bush-turkey who wants a friend, but finding a friend isn't as easy as it sounds. With a little patience, perseverance, and self-acceptance, Tom's quest finally pays off. Bush-Turkey Needs a Friend is a charming story that teaches children valuable life lessons about being different, and fascinating facts about bush-turkeys (also known as brush-turkeys).

Join us for an author talk with Jack Beaumont, the pseudonym of a former operative in the clandestine operations branch of the French foreign secret service, the DGSE. He joined 'The Company' after being an air force fighter pilot and later flying special operations and intelligence missions. Beaumont's background gives his novels a level of authenticity that few other spy thrillers have been able to achieve.

Jack's first novel, The Frenchman introduced readers to the character of Alec de Payns, and now Alec is back in Jack's latest book Dark Arena.
