We were thrilled to have the prizewinning and bestselling author Ross Mackenzie visit Dulwich College with his new book THE UNINVITED. What a fabulous visit – many of the children were familiar with his previous books and there was a real buzz of excitement as he came on stage. He did not disappoint; having told us why he fell in love with reading and determined to become a writer from the age of 9 – Ross read aloud to a spellbound audience – two (quite) long passages from his book. Not a child wriggled or whispered. Everyone was transfixed.
His presentation was super, and there was a little time at the end for a few questions from fans. We are incredibly lucky to have an author of this calibre to visit and so pleased to have Year 6 from Dulwich Wood school join us . The Year 6 librarians were thrilled to meet Ross and press him on his next book. A memorable visit for all.
