Ep 10. Frank Cottrell-Boyce

The Reader - Ein Podcast von The Reader

The author and screenwriter Frank Cottrell-Boyce has been a patron and supporter of The Reader for over a decade. During the summer, after his first post-Covid tour of schools around the UK to talk about his new children’s book, Noah’s Gold, Frank met with Jane Davis, Founder and Director of Literature at The Reader, to talk about the huge differences he saw in the children he met. When Frank came to Gravity, he continued to draw attention to the effects of the Covid lockdowns on children, and spoke with fellow author Lissa Evans, and The Reader’s Head of Children and Young People Kara Orford, about how books can help children cope with change by giving them the apparatus for happiness.    Frank Cottrell-Boyce  Gravity Festival  Frank’s editorial for Books for Keeps online magazine  Lissa Evans  The Reader magazine  Selected Poems by U.A.
