Where the River Runs Gold

Honoured by the International Board of Books for Young People, Waterstones award-winning author Sita Brahmachari explores the rewilding storytelling, environmental and human rights inspirations behind her bestselling novel Where the River Runs Gold. Taking you back to her own childhood, she tells the story of how a shy doodler and daydreamer inspired by nature and her diverse storytelling heritage became an author for children today. Sita’s talk includes readings, drama, seed packet making and audience participation – we are encouraged to make our own environmental pledges.
