Hugh Bonneville at Ilkley Literature Festival

I'm looking forward to talking to Paddington and Downton Abbey actor Hugh Bonneville about his first children's book, Rory Sparkes and the Elephant in the Room at the Ilkley Literature Festival. 

Find out where authors get their ideas from and how adventures on stage and screen helped Bonneville use his own childhood memories as inspiration for his story of adventure, friends and animal encounters!
