A small selection of posts I have enjoyed over the last week or so and I hope you will head over to enjoy in full.
Pete Springer shares the amazing Humboldt County Children’s Author Festival which he is a volunteer for. Every two years the festival brings 25 authors to give talks in the schools in the area, meet the children and share their writing. Logistically challenging but as you will see it was an incredible success again this year.

Jane Risdon joins Judith Barrow to share her memories of her childhood and her grandfather’s house of treasures…Jane comes from an army background with connections to India and Singapore and it is fascinating to learn more about the history and travels of her family.

I do wonder how the electric car will develop, particularly with the battery technology to ensure better mileage and sustainability. John Howell shares an interesting development .A breakthrough in electric vehicle fast-charging battery design from Penn State has enabled a 10-minute charge time for a typical EV battery.

Thanks so much for including me today, Sally. There is something magical about authors connecting with children over literature. Why wouldn’t we want to raise a literate generation, as we will be counting on them somewhere down the road?
