 A lovely letter arrived from reader Anna Knowles from Hillsborough in Northern Ireland. Anna wrote to me about her dyslexia and how she struggled to read until she discovered the Alfie Green books. She has read them all and has kindly suggested that the Alfie Green books should have a dyslexia friendly sticker on them. What a great idea!

Thank you Anna and please do keep up the reading. You're doing great.

Today, I had three writing workshops with some very talented budding writers in Catherine McAuley National School in Baggot  street.

Good luck with all your stories!
