Author Cat Clarke enjoys trip to Stanmore
Cat, author of young adult titles including Torn, Entangled and Undone spoke to the Stanmore students about her favourite children’s book, Charlie And The Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl.
Cat said: “It was a fantastic day and I had a brilliant time talking to the pupils and reading an extract from my favourite kids book. The pupils got a chance to ask me some questions; I was told that they hadn’t had an author in the school before but it just shows that literacy can be open to everyone.
