LitFest ready to leap off the page

Get your nose stuck in a book

Manx LitFest 2018 is almost ready to leap off the page.

Taking place between the 25th to 30th of the month (Sep) this year boasts names such as former childrens' laureate Chris Riddell and Call of the Curlew's Elizabeth Brooks.

Now in its 7th year, the festival will continue its ethos of encouraging children - and adults - to deepen their love of literature.

There will again be events all around the Island, which LitFest Director John Quirk says is something they're always keen to do.
