Y5 and Y6 visit Barnes Literary Festival
The first author we saw was Lisa Thompson, whose latest book is The Rollercoaster Boy.
Lisa was a very good speaker and she went into great detail about her novel. Elektra Y5
Lisa told us all about her characters and how they felt. She enjoyed bringing them to life.Julianne Y5
I got to help Lisa on stage with the escape room. She gave us freedom to work out the codes as one big group. I’m already reading her book! Lizzy Y5
The second author we saw was Christopher Edge, whose latest book is Escape Room.
Christopher’s talk was fun as I liked cracking the codes. I now want to read the book! Alfie C Y6
I liked trying to solve the complex puzzles that he set us - it was like he took us on an adventure with him. Cooper Y6
I liked figuring out the number answers; he got the idea for the book before even going to an escape room - that was impressive! Cristian Y6
