Author visit, Bemma Akyeampong

Author visit

Year 3,4,5,6 were excited to welcome author,  Bemma Akyeampong to Taddington today. She became an author during lockdown; it was something she had always wanted to do. She explained how she also tells stories, teaches music and does dance workshops.









She explained how she had become a published author,  currently writing her 3rd story. All the children were engaged during her telling of one of her stories, Ayuda's messy rescue..









It was interesting to hear how the writing and editing process is a long one, with many drafts, re-writes and discussions, before reaching the final outcome.
