“The pupils all had a brilliant time when Sam visited and were fascinated to learn how an author goes about creating a book. Getting the chance to develop their own characters was a particular highlight for them all. There were lots of smiles throughout and one of the children said afterwards, 'that was my favourite school visitor ever!”

— Andrew Vale-Taylor, Assistant Headteacher, Year 4 and Year 6 Teacher, Speldhurst Primary School, Kent

What People Are Saying

“We’ve been lucky enough to have Sam visit the shop twice. Her workshops were fun, thoughtful and friendly. The children loved making robots and their own cartoon strips. Sam also gave us good food for thought on the ethics of AI. Schoolbot 9000 has a place on our shelves!”

— Jacqui Delbaere, Owner, The Little Green Bookshop, Herne Bay, Kent
