What happens when you fall down a rabbit hole, or wander off a woodland path, or fall asleep under a hawthorn tree at noon? According to many beloved children’s books, you might just be at the start of an adventure. Join us for a storytelling journey into the woods and wilds, seascapes and gardens of fairytales and children’s literature, inspired by the Museum of Childhood’s collection.

Jane Bonsall is a storyteller, lecturer, and researcher at the University of St Andrews.

This is suitable for families. Free but pre-booking is essential. Please note location of this event is Museum of Edinburgh. Please meet in reception.
