P.C. Cast - The House of Night: Awakened
We were delighted to have P.C. Cast over from America to talk about her fantastic House of Night series and the new Book Awakened. Throughout the one-hour event, we were told how P.C. Cast came to write the series, her working relationship with her daughter Kristin and what's in store for the House of Night characters in the next few books. Have a look at the event pictures and interview and come back soon for teacher and pupil feedback.

Teacher Feedback:
'We all, teachers and pupils alike, thoroughly enjoyed the event. It was a real treat. It was well organised and ran smoothly. All boxes ticked.' Lindsay, Forrester High School
'Really enjoyed P.C.Cast. It was a very different author event in that she didn't read from her books but used her overwhelming personality to share her books.' Christine, Liberton High School
'Thanks so much SBT for an awesome, inspiring event. This was the absolute best!' Forrester High School
'A huge success, encouraging our young readers both to read more, engage more with the texts and even to have a bash at writing their own material. Priceless.' Forrester High School
Pupil Feedback:
'PC has given me lots of ideas for my own stories and some mental dreams!' Forrester High School
'I told my mum all about it and showed her the books PC had signed, my little sister was so jealous. I went to bed and started reading, thinking all the time ‘I’ve actually met her and I never thought I would'. Forrester High School
The teachers and pupils at Forrester high enjoyed the event so much that they have even made their own PC cast event video!
