Book reading, talk on her writing process and Q&AAbout this EventWilliam Patrick Library is happy to host local children's author Maggie Scannell as she shares a reading from her new book, 'Pinecraft'.The book is aimed at reading age 7-10 but it is a story for all ages! "Pinecraft, a beautiful modern-day superhero tale about a friendship between a young boy and a clever beaver. Packed full of enriching vocabulary and important environmental issues, children will learn what an ecosystem is, what biodiversity means. Pinecraft is rich in humour and children will quickly identify with the characters and their day-to-day lives."Ten-year-old Josh Greenback lives in the idyllic village of Brookbrink, in northeast England. It is the first day of the school summer holidays and it begins to rain. Over the following days Brookbrink experiences flash flooding and the banks of the river Ahorn burst, flooding the whole village. Josh must leave his home and seek refuge in the community hall in the next town until the clean-up can begin. Josh’s mum Emma sends him to stay with his eccentric granny in Scotland, while the house gets dried out and repaired from the flooding.Pinecraft takes the reader on a wonderful trip to Ochtermuddy in Scotland, where he meets a beaver called Timb. Josh and Timb quickly discover that although very different, they have many things in common, including the same hobby – building! Josh describes the Lego creations he has built over the years, and tells Timb about his favourite computer game, Minecraft. Timb can hardly believe the similarities, and describes his analogue version of Josh’s computer game, which the beavers call Pinecraft. And so begins a wonderful friendship, based on similarities and differences, and sharing skills, as well as lots of fun adventures together. The story has a surprising and delightful superhero ending. https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events4/banners/b813baa0-b6b2-11f0-9743-6fdd05a2854c-rimg-w523-h740-dcffffff-gmir.jpg - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/glasgow/william-patrick-library-family-talk-pinecraft-with-maggie-scannell/100001852469639559 - **Event Categories**: art, literary-art, trips-adventures, holiday, half-term - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: GBP ## Event venue details - **city**: Glasgow - **state**: SC - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: William Patrick Library - **lat**: 55.9414654 - **long**: -4.159095999999977 - **full address**: William Patrick Library, 2-4 West High Street, Glasgow, United Kingdom ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: William Patrick Library Family Talk: 'Pinecraft' with Maggie Scannell - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/bb13f1b2871caeb1e0fb6841cdd55fb8db8c8248cafacf04c517ee53a8832537-rimg-w1200-h1697-dcffffff-gmir.jpg?v=1761953958 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is William Patrick Library Family Talk: 'Pinecraft' with Maggie Scannell being held? - **A:** William Patrick Library Family Talk: 'Pinecraft' with Maggie Scannell takes place on Sat, 01 Nov, 2025 at 02:00 pm to Sat, 01 Nov, 2025 at 03:00 pm at William Patrick Library, 2-4 West High Street, Glasgow, United Kingdom. - **Q**: Who is organizing William Patrick Library Family Talk: 'Pinecraft' with Maggie Scannell? - **A:** William Patrick Library Family Talk: 'Pinecraft' with Maggie Scannell is organized by East Dunbartonshire Leisure & Culture Trust - Cultural Services. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
