See www.jacktrelawny.com for details of his next series, Thirteen Things - 13 stories inspired by the BBC's A History of the World in 100 Objects. Following our previous correspondence, 25 schools booked for February 2012 and 31 schools booked for March 2012. Jack has been kept very busy visiting these schools. One teacher reviewed the visit as follows... To Jane Bennett, Events Manager, Campion Books Dear Jane, Thank you, Caroline Morgan, Sidmouth Primary School, Devon EX10 9XB For more reviews of Jack Trelawny school visits by teachers click on the links at the end of this email. Around 250 schools requested a visit and it has proved very difficult to accomodate all the requests as there is a wide geographical spread. Many schools asked if we could arrange things so that Jack's events are known well in advance in order that schools have time to book and plan. We have therefore organised Jack's diary well in advance and the dates he will be in your area for the rest of this academic year and some way into next year are set out below and on the same page as Jack's Events Calendar on our website. Please do apply again if we were not able to accomodate your request after the last correspondence. Below are the lists of Free School Visits for the rest of Academic Year 2011-12 and the first part of Academic Year 2012-13. Simply scan the lists to see when Jack will be in your area, check Jack's Events Calendar to see if the date you would like is available, and then contact Jane Bennett to arrange a visit. (Please note the author is visiting some areas more than once in the periods covered so you may like to check the complete listings).
We are currently adding to the author's diary for Spring and Summer Terms 2012, so please respond as soon as possible if you would like a visit this year. The earlier schools respond, the more likely we will be able to plan the diary to fit in all those wanting a visit when the author is next in their area. We are also planning the diary for next Academic Year 2012-13, so please also respond if you would like to book for the year starting in Autumn Term 2012.
Why book a Jack Trelawny free author visit? The visits are free. Jack covers the cost of all his own travel, accomodation, and other expenses. The series has quickly become class reading
