About the Author:

Chris Buckton has been writing stories in her head all her life, but has only had the time to write them down since retiring from her job as a teacher and advisor. She has written three children's novels and about 25 short stories. She says, "What I love about writing is that I can travel anywhere I like, through time as well as space, and can invent characters to travel with. There's nothing more exciting." Chris and her husband live in a 500-year-old cottage near Cambridge, England, where she grew up.

In 2009, it was adopted nationally as part of the Primary Literacy Framework.

Julia Strong works with Pie Corbett in developing Talk for Writing.
