AUTHOR EVENTS ARCHIVE “The sessions were wonderful – really
inspiring and so different from anything we have seen before. We
already loved your books and always find them useful for school
projects - but the sessions gave us new insight into their
production.” Youth Services Manager - Northern Children’s Book
Festival
“Thank you for a magical day at St.Olave’s. Your rapport with
the children was wonderful, they talked about you for days
afterwards - we’ve taken some photos of the jaguar masks so I’ll
send them soon. We had to order even MORE books the following week,
brilliant! Principal- St Olave’s School, New Eltham.
