What's On - Children’s Book Festival: Storytelling Session with Pauline Tait

Following the enormous success of last year’s inaugural Waterstones Children’s Book Festival, our celebration of the magic of children’s literature returns in 2026. Coming to Dundee from Friday 6 to Sunday 8 February and jam-packed with author events, workshops, activities and more, book your tickets now for a truly unmissable event.

Join Pauline Tait for an interactive storytime and craft session based on The Fairy in the Kettle, the first book in her multi-award-winning trilogy. During the event, Pauline share a reading that introduces children to Leona and her precious kettle home, bringing the sights and sounds of the story to life in an engaging and accessible way for ages 3 to 7 years. After the reading, children can enjoy hands-on craft activities inspired by the book. Children can make fairy finger puppets, fairy wings, fairy wands, and enjoy colouring images from within the trilogy.

The session is warm, welcoming and designed to give young readers a fun, memorable experience with plenty of opportunities to join in.

Suitable for children aged between 3 to 7 years.
