The very first Henley Literary Festival event of the year welcomes Michael Rosen to Henley on paperback publication day for Getting Better: Life lessons on going under, getting over it, and getting through it. 

From We’re Going on a Bear Hunt to The Boris Letters, as poet, broadcaster, Children’s Laureate and author of over 200 books Michael Rosen has been cheering us up for over 50 years. Over the same time he has grieved the loss of a child, lived with debilitating chronic illness and faced death itself when seriously unwell in hospital.

In spite of this he has survived and has even learned to find joy in life in the aftermath of tragedy.

Michael joins the festival on 8^th February at 6pm to talk to Dr Rachel Clarke, author of Breathtaking and Your Life in My Hands.

One of our greatest writers shares stories, moving and laugh-out loud funny moments as he investigates the road to recovery, whatever we’ve been through.

1 Ticket (incl. book): £15.00
