P4-7 Author Visit
As part of continued Book Week Scotland celebrations, Primary 4-7 are very lucky to have an author visit from Will Wood on Wednesday 27th November.
Mr Wood is the author of The Fairy with the Broken Wings. The Fairy with the Broken Wings is a magical, fantasy adventure, embarked by an eight-year-old as she closes her mind to the surrounding world and its conflicts and opens the door of her imagination.  Join Esperanza as she ventures through the Underground, the Blue River, the Whistle-Blowing Forest and the Crystal Mountain and meet the characters she encounters on the way. This is a story of determination, resourcefulness, love and unconditional trust.
If your child enjoys the book, it is available to purchase on Amazon and we can arrange a signing of the book after.

Thank you very much to Ms Cook for organising the visit.
