“The Edinburgh Book Festival was really exciting because when we got our books signed it felt like meeting a celeb”
“headed back from a great day at the Edinburgh Book Festival”
Those were two of the comments from previous Edinburgh trips. This year we will be heading to the Festival on Monday the 22nd of August and hope to attend two events : Celia Rees will talk about her latest book and how she gets her inspiration and carries out her research while Julie Bertagna and Keith Gray will discuss how their books tackle the problems of surviving life in the future. For more information on these authors have a look at the following websites: www.celiarees.com www.juliebertagna.com www.edbookfest.co.uk/writers/keith-gray
The Edinburgh trip is open to current S1 and S2 pupils. Please see the Librarians for details or ask your English teacher
