I was invited to the Bath Kid lit Festival – Launch party and it was an amazing night! After a year of so many restrictions and cancellations, it was so lovely to attend an ‘in-person’ author event.
Cressida Cowell joined us and spoke about her quest to get books into every child’s hands and she gave a wonderful insight into striving to become the best author you can be!
This was an amazing author event. I and part of the UNICEF Berlin team participated in a workshop during the height of the pandemic, at the Berlin Cosmopolitan School.
The workshop was performed virtually and was conducted to a class of 25 children, ages ranging from 5-8. The Heavy Bag had been studied beforehand by the teacher and class and then with the help of UNICEF’s child play therapist, we elicited responses from the children about how they understood the book and what grief means to them.
