Hugless Douglas with David Melling

2.30pm

Age 4+

Hugless Douglas is in need of ‘a big bear hug’. As he goes in search of one, none seem quite right – too small, too short and too uncomfortable. Of course, there’s only one hug that will do – a hug from his mum! Meet award-winning author and illustrator David Melling, find out how he created his adorable character and join in some live drawing.
