1001 Stories with Julia Donaldson

Bestselling author Julia Donaldson visits The Story Museum in Oxford for a very special event exploring the craft of storytelling, October 28.

The Story Museum is delighted to welcome back best-selling author Julia Donaldson for a special event in conversation with Sunday Times Children’s Literature editor Nicolette Jones about the craft of storytelling.

The evening is part of the museum’s on-going adult series of events entitled 1001 Stories in which authors, artists, film-makers and others explore what makes a great story and which are the stories that The Story Museum should preserve for the future in its 1001 story collection.

Julia Donaldson is a writer, playwright and performer, best known for her popular children’s books including The Gruffalo, Room on the Broom and Stick Man.

The Gruffalo has sold over 13.5 million copies worldwide and is currently touring as a very successful stage show. Julia was Children’s Laureate from 2011-2013 and featured in The Story Museum’s opening ’26 Characters’ exhibitions as the Owl and the Pussy Cat along with her husband Malcolm.
