Inclusive Minds "What About Me?" event coming to the Imagine Children's Festival, Southbank Centre, London on 21st February 2014

| The Imagine Children's Festival. The South Bank comes alive with stories and fun! |
Our good friends over at Inclusive Minds have been commissioned to run an event at London's Southbank Centre as part of this year's Imagine Children's Festival.
The one-day event entitled "What About Me?" is focused on making children's books truly inclusive of ALL children, and giving children a real voice within children's books.
It will be a free and accessible event with activities to suit every child's needs and interests, including sensory activity and signed poetry. We will be welcoming a host of children's book creators to the event to meet children, discuss ideas, take part in workshops and work with children to 're-imagine' book covers and stories, to make sure all children really are included in books.
The full programme can be found on the Inclusive Minds website.
The event will end with a panel discussion looking at how 'normal' is presented in children's books, and what messages this gives to children about society.
