Ali Sparkes on Writing for Children
We are delighted to welcome Ali Sparkes to our club as this is the first time Ali will have given a talk to our members.
Ali Sparkes is a journalist and broadcaster and has always loved adventure stories about kids who poke about in woods, who are having a hard time but can still be brave and amazing or who live an ordinary life until something extraordinary happens to them. Her 'Shapeshifter' series has been a hit with action/adventure story lovers all over the world and her 'Monster Makers' series attracts lunatics of all ages.
Ali's book 'Frozen in Time' has won the West Sussex Children's Book Award for 2010, voted by children in years 6 and 7. It was also voted Blue Peter Book of the Year.
