On Wednesday 10th April at 6.30pm, join local author/illustrator Emma Lazell as she celebrates the launch of her debut picture book 'Big Cat'.

Isobel's grandma has lost her glasses and she can't see a thing without them. While Isobel and Gran are in the garden searching for the glasses, they come across a cat. A very big cat. A very big and friendly cat. The big cat moves in with them, much to the disgust of all gran's other cats. He might be good fun, but he takes up lots of space and eats every scrap of food. Eventually the new cat's mum and dad turn up, looking for their missing son. And they just happen to have found Gran's glasses too. The tiger family are delighted to be reunited -- and Gran now sees that she's been sharing her house with... a tiger!

Tuesday, 30th April, 6.30pm

Join David Kogan as he talks about his new book, Protest and Power - 'the definitive account' of recent battles and schisms in the Labour Party.

Under the leadership of Jeremy Corbyn, Labour moves further to the left. For the first time since the 1970s, socialism is back on the agenda. But clashes of ideology and tactics have been the story of the Labour Party for the last 70 years and traditional leadership is often thought to fail. Could things be different with Corbyn? The answer lies in examining the party's history from 1979 to the present.

Join Michael J. Benton at Heffers as he talks about 'The Dinosaurs Rediscovered' - his new book which traces the transformation of dinosaur study from its roots in antiquated natural history to a highly technical, computational, and indisputably scientific field today.

Over the past twenty years, the study of dinosaurs has changed from natural history to a true scientific discipline. New technologies have revealed secrets locked in the prehistoric bones in ways that nobody predicted - we can now work out the colour of dinosaurs, their bite forces, top speeds, and even how they cared for their young.
