Island Book Launch in UK

Launch event for Nicky Singer’s crowd-funded novelisation of her stage-play Island, at Waterstones' book shop in Brighton.
Island is the story of a boy, a girl, an ice-bear and keeping the Arctic frozen. Originally a play for young people at the National Theatre (Powerful, moving drama - The Independent), Nicky Singer has re-written the story as a novel with illustrations by Children’s Laureate and political cartoonist, Chris Riddell. Chris has generously pledged to donate all his proceeds from the book to Greenpeace.
