We were very lucky to have the author of 'Quiet Storm', Kimberley Whittam drop by during Book Club on Thursday, as a reward for them finishing the book. The author is a local writer and she used to work at WHGS.
The students really enjoyed asking her questions about how she became a writer and also questions about what had happened to Storm and how the other characters had been treating her. The students shared their own thoughts about the situations occurring in the book and how they would have felt if it had been them. It even brought out conversations about themselves and their own experiences.
This was a great way to finish reading the book - with the author being there, reading out her own words.
