Book Festival

Pupils from the Advanced Higher English class and some of our pupil library assistants visited the Edinburgh International Book Festival today, where they heard from three authors shortlisted for the YA Book Prize. Danielle Jawando, Alex Wheatle and Becky Jerams spoke about their shortlisted novels and our students had to a chance to meet Danielle and Becky in the signing tent afterwards. 

You can read more about all the books and shortlisted authors here https://www.thebookseller.com/events/the-ya-book-prize?tab=shortlist and all the books are available to borrow from the Library now.
