I´m a student of English language and It is my second book that I have read in English, and now I discover that this book also is in film, so I feel so glad about it. Really I want to see the film as soon as can. It is an amazing story where I have learned a lot of new vocabulary, thank you very much Michael Morpurgo
Great discussions, a more lively and dynamic format than the traditional "interviewer and interviewee". More please!
Hello Huck! It has been a half a century and then some. You look exactly as you did when we were kids. I remember lying on your Father's studio floor with tracing paper and pencils as well. Your Mother was such a lovely character. Fun to see this after so many years away from Compo....
Great chinwag, humanising the author in these get-togethers makes the books more personal for the reader and puts a personality behind the story. Great stuff.
Loved it!
Really Enjoyed this very informative :D
Super interesting! Thanks for sharing.
Most insightful and entertaining!
I've read the book and it was so good
