Our final online author visit for the Spark! School Book Award took place on Wednesday - Ashley Hickson-Lovence spoke to us about his shortlisted novel, 'Wild East'.
After a terrible tragedy, Ronny and his mum move from East London to East Anglia for a fresh start - 'Wild East' is a moving and redemptive verse novel about finding your voice.
Ashley told us about how the book was based on a tragic loss in his own life, and how we can use real events from our own lives to inspire our writing.
Even though the Spark! online author visits are finished, there's plenty to look forward to. We will be casting our votes for the winning book soon. We are also really excited that the winner of last year's Spark! Book Award, Ravena Guron, is coming to speak to our Year 7 and 8 pupils in June.
