Cecco Angiolieri Book school event!
140 Children!
THE LONDON TRANSPORT MUSEUM
A note to the children who have attended.
Many thanks for coming along to meet me in the most wonderful venue,
The London Transport Museum!
It was such an honour to share with you stories about what inspired
the writing of Beatrice and the London Bus books and the creation of my characters.
I hope you have already started reading volume one and mostly that you are enjoying
Beatrice’ s story about her dreams, especially the dream she has to become a bus driver of a talking bus
and drive around her city to discover many wonderful things.
I hope, it’ll help you remember that not matter how weird, uncool and strange your dreams
and your imagination might appear to others ,
you should trust them and cherish them.
ALWAYS,
just like Beatrice does.
She does in fact becomes a Bus driver and really embarks on some wonderful adventures about
her wonderful town, LONDON, and with a trusted friend –
a special talking London Bus only special people can hear-
people with a great imagination.
As long as your dreams
matter to you,
and to the people who love you,
it is what matters the most.
