James Norbury, the Sunday Times-bestselling author-illustrator of Big Panda and Tiny Dragon and The Journey, has been warmly welcomed by fans in Croatia.

As part of an event at the Interliber Book Fair in Zagreb, James spent a wonderful nine hours meeting and talking to fans, signing books and taking photographs. Thanks go to Stilus Knjiga, James’s Croatian publisher. See their post on Instagram here.

‘We shall go on a journey, across the river . . .’

Join Big Panda and Tiny Dragon as they set off on an extraordinary adventure in this beautifully illustrated companion to the global bestselling phenomenon Big Panda and Tiny Dragon.

Although content in their temple high up in the mountains, Tiny Dragon realises that something feels incomplete. So it is that the two friends decide to make a journey together, to new and distant lands. As they encounter dangers and challenges, they learn that everything they need is already inside them and that change, though sometimes scary, is possible and, with patience, can lead to better things.

‘If we have to be lost,’ said Big Panda, ‘I am glad it is with you . . .’

The Journey is out now in the UK. Grab it here or, better, via your local bookshop or Bookshop.org.
