School Visits
To generate, excite, inspire and encourage writing. Enhancing Art and English
to make talking about books, words, pictures; fun and interesting. If the author’s
book sits alongside the school curriculum, that’s a bonus!
In a study constructed by the society of authors, found that 99.4% of those that
conducted an author visit, considered the visits an invaluable enrichment that
encourages reading for pleasure, wider reading and creative writing.

What age group?
Both Binx books are targeted at 2 – 5 year olds, thus the Key Stage 1 ages, years 1 and 2 are ideal. The books include important messages and life lessons; making them relatable for children within the KS2 age bracket and educating them further on their PSHE skills.
I use a variety of resources like PowerPoint presentations to explain my creative process (with loads of visuals); altering my language based on age group. I often end the sessions with time lapse videography of me drawing my characters.

Binx the Jinx Published by Tiny Tree
Binx is a black cat who loves to play and explore. In fact, he’s the most curious cat around. A happy-go-lucky little guy, he’s always trying to make friends. It’s just a shame that so many people think black cats are bad luck.
