In Storytime: Growing Up with Books, author and literary critic Jane Sullivan takes us from Wonderland to Narnia, Moomintroll to Mr Toad and from Winnie the Pooh to the Magic Pudding, to find out why her favourite childhood books were so vitally important, and how they shaped the woman she is today. Come along to hear Sullivan discuss with Jason Steger her emotional adventure down memory lane, during which she relives old joys and faces old fears, and discovers that the books were not what she thought they were, and she was not the child she thought she was.
