Story king Cole meets 300 kids at Solstice

Children’s author Steve Cole wowed schoolchildren on his recent visit to the Solstice Theatre in Navan. Children from all over the county were invited to see Cole, author of the 'Astrosaurs’ and 'Cows in Action’ series as part of the activities planned by Meath County Council Library Service and Children’s Books Ireland for the Children’s Book Festival. Over 300 children turned up to the event where Cole entertained with ideas on writing stories and aspects of his own works. The children got a chance to ask him questions at the end of the event and get their books signed by the author. The Children’s Book Festival is a national event and runs throughout the month of November. Further details on what is happening can be found at any local library or on www.meath.ie
