Merri-bek Libraries

Huda Hayek is the author of the cheeky, fun and fast moving books Huda and Me and Huda was Here. Much of Huda's work is about ‘embracing difference’. Because difference is wonderful and embracing these qualities within yourself can lead to incredible things! Huda is particularly interested in the use of people's ‘own voices.’ and demonstrates how powerful it is when writers use their own backgrounds and experiences in their stories. This session is for ages 14-18 . Bookings essential. Please contact your local library if you need help to make a booking. Copies of Huda's books will be available for purchase on the day thanks to local bookshop Pictures & Pages. Check out the full suite of Summer StoryFest events, activities and workshops!
