Gill Arbuthnott: Children's Author

I’m delighted to be going back on the road again after such a long lay-off! Here’s what’s coming up:

Saturday July 2nd: I’ll be speaking at the Scottish Game Fair in Scone. I’m talking about From Shore to Ocean Floor in The Nest (how wonderful is that?) at 4pm. The Fair is a great day out – I can’t wait to watch the terrier racing!

Saturday August 20th: I’ll be at the Edinburgh International Book Festival talking about my newest book Microbe Wars. Come along at 1330 to find out about revolting diseases caused by our tiny enemies – but also to find out about the many microbes on our side and how to help your own microbe army!

Sunday August 21st: Mary Stewart became Queen of Scots when she was only 6 days old. At 18, she was a widow, returning from France to try to rule a divided, fractious country. Her story is an extraordinary one; come and hear about it at 13.30 when I’ll be talking about The Amazing Life of Mary, Queen of Scots.
