Y7 – World Book Day Author Visit – Thursday 6th March

Dear Parents and Carers,

World Book Day Author Visit – Thursday 6th March

We are delighted to welcome back Lis Jardine – former HWA Librarian and now published children’s author – as part of our World Book Day Celebrations. Lis is the author of the incredibly successful The Detention Detectives book series: https://lisjardine.com/reviews/

Friendship, trust, courage and determination are at the heart of this extremely funny murder- mystery tale. Featuring a hugely entertaining cast of characters, the intriguing plot is full of twists and turns, and will keep readers guessing to the very end.

As well as an interactive audience activity, Lis will be delivering a talk to Y7 students, sharing her journey to publication and why she chose to write murder mysteries.

After the talk, Lis will be available for a book signing session in the library over breaktime. If you would like to pre-order copies of The Detention Detective books, please make payment via SCOPAY (HWA Online Payments) by Tuesday 25th February. If you do not currently have access please contact Kathryn Davis, Finance Assistant on 0117 440 8900 extension 1412 or email [email protected]. The books will be available at a discounted price of £7 per book. The books which will be available are:

#1 – The Detention Detectives

#2 – The Detention Detectives: Murder By Mistake

#3 – The Detention Detectives: Talent for Trouble

We are very lucky to have Lis come to see and us. I hope your child is left inspired and enthused by the visit.

Yours sincerely,

Deborah Owens
