Bestselling children’s author Jacqueline Wilson will be talking about her new book and chatting to children when she visits Kent this weekend.

In an event on Sunday, May 20 being hosted by Waterstones Canterbury, Jacqueline will discuss the book Rose Rivers at the Margate Winter Gardens.

Waterstones Canterbury manager, Martin Latham, said: “We’re really excited to have Jacqueline coming.

"She is one of our most popular and treasured children’s authors.”

Illustrated by Nick Sharratt, Rose Rivers is part of the Hetty Feather series.

Rose lives in a beautiful house and has everything money can buy, but is troubled by why life is so unfair for people not born rich. There will be time for children to ask questions at Sunday’s event. Tickets for the event at Margate Winter Gardens cost £5 for children and £7 or £18 including a copy of Rose Rivers.
