Children's author to visit Umina

Children's author Mr Tim Harris will visit Umina Beach Public School as part of the school's Author Lunch Program on October 25.

The author talk is informal and lively and allows the children the chance to hear an author speak about the process of writing and getting published.

The author will dedicate and sign books for all the participants after question and answer time.

"This is a fantastic opportunity to get to know the ins-and-outs of writing stories," said principal Ms Lyn Davis.

"Mr Harris is one of the most exciting new children's authors in Australia.

"With over 15 years' experience as a primary school teacher, he knows exactly what it takes to get children reading.

"Mr Harris' latest laugh-out-loud read is Mr Bambuckle's Remarkables, the fun of David Walliams meets the magic of Mary Poppins and the looming disaster of Lemony Snicket in this new series about Mr Bambuckle and his class of 15 remarkable students."
