Cornelia Funke (children's event)

Massively popular writer for older children (although also with
many adult readers; her work crosses over nicely), Cornelia Funke
made a rare appearance at the Book Festival this year. With her
boundless enthusiasm for stories she tells a packed auditorium
all about the final installment to her Inkworld series and gives
a sneak preview of her much anticipated new book, due out next
year.
