Your Wildest Dreams Tour
3 Days, 3 Cities, 3 Amazing Writers
What’s your wildest dream? To be an actor? A professional dancer? To win the X Factor? Or maybe even be a writer?
Sophia Bennett, Judi Curtin and Sarah Webb all dreamed of one day becoming writers. Discover how all their dreams came true and more on this very special tour of Limerick, Cork and Dublin as part of the 2010 Children’s Book Festival.
The Writers’ Manifesto
Sophia, Judi and Sarah are all dedicated to writing about:
Real girls
Real drama and young teen issues
And telling the truth to their readers.
No vampires
No werewolves
No boys that go bump in the night in their books!
Judi, Sarah and Sophia are huge book lovers and want to share that passion, and their belief in the power of story with young Irish readers on their tour. Judi is an ex-teacher, Sarah a children’s book consultant, and all three have fabulous ideas for keeping reluctant young teens reading.
