Secret stories family trail
-
A family trail taking you on a journey around our free galleries.
A family trail inspired by Hidden Treasure, the new children’s book by bestselling author Jessie Burton.
Inspired by the tale of two young mudlarks, the trail will take you on a journey around our free galleries to learn more about centuries of life by the river.
Hidden Treasure is a tale of two children whose lives collide when they find ancient treasure in the Thames – a mysterious object which holds the power to give back to one of them the most precious thing they have ever lost.
