“Thank you, Sarah, for joining our online lessons this week. Your talk about how you became an author/illustrator was so inspirational and our pupils loved listening to your journey. It was great to hear, first hand, how your dreams can come true if you work hard and believe in yourself! The drawing tutorial at the end was fabulous and so much fun! Your illustrations are amazing and we loved hearing all about the stories in your books. Thanks so much!”

“We invited Sarah to read her story ‘The Shoe Foxes’ to our children on World Book Day.  Sarah was fantastic with the staff and children and the session was pitched perfectly for Key Stage 1.  Her reading brought the story to life and the children were transfixed throughout.  After hearing the story the children were keen to draw and colour the Shoe Foxes and at playtime went out to look for them.  We will definitely be inviting Sarah back to hear her next story. “

“We were delighted to have Sarah visit our class and her stories tied in perfectly with our ‘animals’ topic. Our children were all so engaged by the session and eager to contribute. Sarah really brought the stories to life and it was lovely to see the same enthusiasm from the children. After hearing the stories the children were keen to pick up books, talk about and draw the animals they had just seen and learnt about. We are still hearing the children talk about ‘grebes’ to date! We very much look forward to inviting Sarah back in the future.”

“Sarah is extremely talented, and delivered a high quality workshop for Year 2 children, which was full of enthusiasm. The children were truly motivated by her engaging personality, spectacular illustrations and captivating text. The children were inspired to produce some fantastic stories and illustrations as a result of the workshop. We look forward to inviting her again to our school!”
