Big Walk to Little Schools
“The visit was very informative. The children enjoyed joining in with the drawing and they liked learning about your books and how you came up with the ideas for them. It’s great to have the opportunity for our children to meet a real author and to be inspired by the stories you shared. Good luck on your big walk!”
This year I have begun an ambitious journey to share my stories in schools and libraries, walking from Cornwall to the Scottish Isles on the End to End Trail, over time.
Email me on BigWalk@catherinebarrbooks.me to see if your school is on my walk and you’d like to take part. My publishers are offering free library books to all participating schools. I am sharing stories on nature and conservation, connecting children with creative drawing and writing competitions with book prizes.
FREE author events are possible thanks to Art’s Council Lottery Grant Funding for Phase 1 from Cornwall to my home Hay-on-Wye.
