This week, all the children in year 5 were fortunate enough to receive their own copy of the story “The Boy who Fell from the Sky.” The children were given these books after having a virtual meeting with Benjamin Dean – the author of the story. During the call, the children learnt about what inspired Dean to write and how he came up with his ideas for his fantasy narratives. After the meeting, Cayden said, “The meeting with Benjamin Dean motivated me to write my own short story. I tried to slowly build up suspense.” Isla added, “Benjamin felt that he wasn’t represented by the main characters in books when he was younger so based this story around him.”
