Art materials will be provided but please feel free to bring your favourite pens or your own sketchbooks. 

Ticket price includes a copy of Class Pets (RRP. £9.99), a drink and a snack.

About Beach: 

Beach is an illustrator who loves making books. He's had a few different jobs over the years, but his favourite before this one was making pizzas. If you can think of it, he has probably tried it on a pizza. Chips work surprisingly well as a topping. Donuts, not so much.

About Class Pets: 

When the kids are away, the pets will play! A side-splittingly hilarious graphic novel for fans of The Secret Life of Pets and Bunny vs Monkey. A new animal is arriving at St Bernard’s Academy, and the current class pets could not be more excited. That’s until who they find out their new friend is actually a terrifying, and very hungry, snake! He’s already eaten the headteacher and has his eye on some more furry snacks.  It’s up to the class pets to join forces and save the day, but everything they know will be tested in an epic fight to survive. Can Goldie the fish find a use for school cafeteria food? Will Mrs Sprinkles the Guinea pig discover if there’s ever a wrong time for glitter glue? Can Ken the stick insect survive being cut in half?  These questions and MORE answered in a the first of a riotous new young fiction series from best-selling picture book superstar Beach.
