Wanstead Book Festival presents: Rory Cellan-Jones

Join us for a special return visit from Rory Cellan-Jones, former BBC Technology correspondent and a familiar face to millions. Rory will be talking about his heartwarming book Sophie from Romania, which tells the story of how he and his wife adopted a traumatised rescue dog and shared her journey—from paralysed fear behind the sofa to joyful, tail-wagging confidence—with a growing online following. A moving, funny and ultimately uplifting tale of patience, love, and the strange power of social media.
