Ella on the Outside was published in 2018. One of its big themes is friendship, and Ella takes a while to discover the right friend.
As I visited schools to introduce the story, I found myself reflecting on what a real friend is and talked a lot to children about it.
Their ideas were amazing.

 I asked each child in my workshops to complete this statement: A Real Friend is like………because…………

I asked children to think of an image- an object, a colour, something everyday, something extraordinary!
​I now have a fantastic collection. These answers are never altered; they are in the children’s own words.
The slate was my Grandad’s, used to learn to read and write.

Here are some of my favourites:
