Earlier that day they are also due to pop in to Writhlington School, in Radstock, where they will speak to pupils about reading and the artwork which inspired them, because a number of famous paintings appear in the book.

Barrowman is both a star of stage and screen and is probably best-known for his portrayal of the character Captain Jack in the BBC shows Doctor Who and Torchwood.

His sister Carole is a journalist and English professor in Wisconsin.

As a writing team, they collaborated on Barrowman's autobiography Anything Goes and the follow-up, I Am What I Am.

Bone Quill is their second children's book, with the first, Hollow Earth, proving popular with both critics and readers.
