It was my second time as a visiting author to the Dorchester Literary Festival Schools Programme. Last year it ran 12 events across 4 days reaching nearly 3,500 students. This year I spoke to years 7 & 8 at Thomas Hardye and St Mary’s CE Middle Schools, who were a top crowd.
It’s great to see my novel ‘Chinglish’ continuing to be a hit in classrooms. I never knew it could be such an effective empathy tool. Thanks for the invite DLF!
