Bookings open for World Book Day and beyond!

One month till World Book Day!

My events so far include Zooming to a school in Saudi Arabia and running an interactive ‘Speak Out!’ session at a local library. Is there anything YOU would like me to do to support reading and creative writing in your classroom?

I am now taking bookings for the month of March and also for the UK summer term…

… and I would *love* to run a workshop or Q&A session or hold a reading for young people in your community. I offer special book sale prices and every child receives National Literacy Trust colouring-in sheets and a bookmark. Please contact me for availability and rates (which are flexible!). I can also answer any questions you have about seeking Scottish Book Trust funding to cover the cost of our event together. I can’t wait to hear from you!

 

“The children loved hearing all about Joan’s books, the inspiration behind them and the importance of reading for pleasure. What a day!”

“Well, that was a blast! An original, upbeat and informative session. The pupils will be talking about this for weeks to come!”

“Engaging and inspiring!”
