About this event

A very special afternoon for Gruffalo fans young and old! Illustrator Axel Scheffler comes to Frankfurt to share his brand‑new picture book live. Together with Benno Hennig von Lange, he’ll bring “The Gruffalo’s Grandma” to life in the cosy hall of the Literaturhaus. Children can enjoy the illustrations up close and maybe even ask the artist a question – a warm, cheerful reading that brings the deep dark wood straight to Frankfurt.
