A little spooky, lots of fun.
Performance/MusicSpecial EventWheeler Kids

Join Sally Rippin for a ghostly good time as she introduces her newest novel Lottie, Pog and the Runaway Ghost.

Ten-year-old Lottie Baker loves her dad and her dog, Pog. And that’s quite enough family for her, thank you very much. But then she meets Martha May Claringbold, a ghost desperate to escape a dark, smelly and terribly dull graveyard – and move into Lottie’s room!

In this interactive storytime event for Wheeler Kids, former Australian Children’s Laureate Sally Rippin introduces her funny and heartfelt new adventure full of friendship, surprises and just the right amount of spookiness.

Join her for a day of storytelling and activities and discover the magic behind bringing unforgettable characters to life – even ghosts!
