Princess Minna

Join author Kirsty Applebaum for a Princess Minna story! Princess Minna lives in Castle Tall-Towers with the King, the Queen and a wizard called Raymond. Whenever there’s a problem in the kingdom Princess Minna just loves to sort it out – with a little help from her best friend, Lorenzo the Dragon.
The Princess Minna books are perfect for ages 4-7, but all ages are welcome to come along. After the story, we’ll be making crowns!

The Princess Minna stories are written by Kirsty and illustrated by Sahar Hahghoo. Kirsty writes children’s books in a range of genres, including science fiction, fairy tale, folk horror and dystopia. She has written standalone novels for older readers and a series about an adventurous princess for younger ones (Princess Minna!) Her books have been selected by BookTrust for their Great Books Guides, shortlisted in a number of UK national awards and nominated for the Carnegie Medal. They have been translated into several languages.
