Journey to wondrous places between pages at Auckland Writers Festival’s FREE family friendly event, Amzing Wordly Things.

Venture to the misty mountains of the Himalayas, meet one of the greatest scientists on the planet, and enter an imaginary wonderland with three books about our wonderful world. Ant Sang, the illustrator of 4 Yaks and a Yeti, written by Peter Hillary, will have everybody drawing their own yeti. Hear all about the ordinary New Zealand boy who grew up to shape modern science in Maria Gill’s Ernest Rutherford: Just an Ordinary Boy. Explore an imaginary land, not dissimilar to the Australian desert, with Gunai author Kirli Saunders and The Incredible Freedom Machines.
