Hi Debra, My Year 5 class attended your talk, at Waterstones in Sutton, in July 2005. I have been asked, by Julia Burridge, to send you some feedback from this.
The talk, on "Aggie Lichen; Pilp collector", was a thoroughly enjoyable one for all children. They heard about the process of writing the book aswell as extracts from the text. The personal touch; how ideas were gathered, how the drafts were produced etc, ensured all children felt able to go away and write themselves. Many of the children bought the book and have since commented on their enjoyment of it. I would like to pass on my Thanks to Debra for her inspirational talk and thought provoking book.
Hope this is of use. Thanks again for the opportunity to hear you speak about the book. Nicki Douglas
