I do enjoy visiting schools and getting the chance to chat to the children. I had a great trip to Everdons Primary School in Wokingham on Tuesday afternoon and spent some time with Years 3 & 4.

Once again, I shared my passion for reading and writing and was so impressed with the behavi

It's a real treat to go and see the children dressed up as their favourite book character or a character from their favourite book. It's great to be able to share my passion for reading and writing with the children, and hopefully inspire them in some way. The children were very well behaved, polite and so friendly. It's definitely one of the most fun things a children's author can do a
