London Children's Literature Festival 2026
Axel has supported the Barnes Children's Literature Festival from the very start, and although the festival's name has changed, it will still be a lovely event at a lovely festival. Come and see Axel in Barnes, drawing his most famous characters, including everyone’s favourite The Gruffalo, reading stories and answering your questions.
Axel will be signing books for 2 hours after the event. (He will sign all new books bought from the Festival bookstall and one book per person/family if brought from home.)
