Testimonials:

"engaging and inspiring - the boys thoroughly enjoyed meeting her and were surprised by how many ideas they were able to dream up in a relatively short amount of time!"

Teacher, Cothill House, Abingdon

“Natasha's visit was very well prepared.  She related well to the students.  Students enjoyed a Meet the Author and book signing session in the library.  They enjoyed talking to her, and asking her questions about her books.  I was delighted that the boys were also interested in the books, having heard Natasha talk in assembly.  We felt that the visit achieved exactly what we wanted as a celebration of stories and books, plus allowing students to develop confidence in their own writing in the workshops.  I'd highly recommend Natasha for an author visit."

Librarian, THE LATYMER SCHOOL, LONDON

“Natasha was one of the best authors we have had the pleasure of meeting.  She really engaged with the girls and had them enthralled.”

Librarian, OXFORD HIGH JUNIOR SCHOOL

“The girls thoroughly enjoyed Natasha’s visit to our school.  They found her presentations engaging and funny; with many commenting on how surprised they were to find that her books were influenced by real life experiences.  The writing workshops that she conducted with our students were a fantastic success.  All girls who were lucky enough to work with Natasha in some way have come away smiling, inspired and confident.”

Librarian, ST GEORGE'S ASCOT
