NATE Classroom Autumn 2011

Posted by Helen | Filed under News, Recommendations

Read my article in the above magazine on narrative points of view and how this works in ‘The Knife of Never Letting Go.’ by Patrick Ness.

Wonderful young adult novel that is part of a wonderful trilogy: ‘Chaos Walking’…destined to be a classic.

Read it here: That’s my point of view.
