“Eve Ainsworth’s visits are engaging, thoughtful and entertaining. She brings her novels to life for the students through her personal experiences, imagination and creativity. I highly recommend Eve for a school visit, your students will thank you for it!” Lucas Maxwell Glenthorne School. "What more can I say. Eve is wonderful! Eve has visited my secondary school, The Warwick School, Redhill, several times. She has done small writing workshops (including working with SEN pupils) to unleash creativity in my students and a more traditional ‘author’ talk with questions and answers Eve is engaging and warm. Her books are marvellous and are very popular with my readers. Eve has also acted as a supporter of the local writing competition I established. Reigate and Banstead Writes. She presented prizes to our winners and supported with promoting the competition." Kay Hymas, Library Manger, Warwick School, Redhill. “Having Eve in, allowed us to discuss some of the more delicate issues facing our young people today, while encouraging the love of reading for pleasure. The themes of Eve’s books deal with topics of resilience and self-awareness.” Mrs K Dock, Tanbridge House School
