Hello Debra
We enjoyed
...looking at the scripts and books in their different stages.
...hearing about the Grublings because we liked the idea of them. Also the other
characters because they have realistic personalities.
...hearing about your ideas and how they linked to your life story and why.
...having a bit read to us as it gave it a taste of your book.
...enthusiasm coming from you for your book.
...inspiration to help us start writing our own books.
...the process of publishing a book and how long it takes. Matthew is not sure
whether he wants to be an author anymore!! It hasn't changed Hayley's mind,
though, and she is in the middle of writing her second novel.
...the mistakes that happened when it was published.
We found the talk interesting because we learnt lots about planning stories,
inspiration for ideas and publishing. There was a good mixture of things to
look at, talking and discussing. You explained well. We could see how hard it
was to get a book published. It was weird to see the story in just paperform
before it was a book. We liked looking at the mistakes because it was funny and
we liked seeing all the crossing out bits. We liked having the opportunity to
ask you questions because it meant that we could find out even more information.
We thought it was interesting to get different questions from different children
and the answers you gave were clear.
Aggie is stroppy so it is really funny. She is grumpy and never wants to take
her sister out and she is really mean to her - it is funny. Aggie is odd
because she cries over a dress; she calls her sister names but cuddles her the
next minute. In the beginning it shows she takes after her dad.I think is Aggie
is like an ordinary teenager that always wants her way.
The book is absolutely awesome and I recommend it for everyone.
This book is excellent for all ages.
It is so funny you will laugh your socks off!
This book encourages we to write more stories especially as I have met the
author who told me how to become an author.
Thank you for coming to talk to us - I've been inspired!
The author has a great imagination.
Thank you for coming in, Larch Class
