Editorial Review | Praise for Michael Morpurgo: “Michael Morpurgo writes brilliantly about war and animals, conveying the big emotions without preaching.” – The Guardian “Champagne quality over a wide range of subjects.” – Daily Telegraph “There are few children’s writers as compelling as Michael Morpurgo.” – Daily Express “Morpurgo’s gift is to make this long-ago world of danger and heartbreak accessible without ever patronising his young readers.” – Sunday Mercury “Morpurgo, as always, is subtle and skillful, and incorporates social and moral issues into his writing without being self-righteous or detracting from the quality of the narrative” Elizabeth Reilly – British Council “The former children's laureate has the happy knack of speaking to both child and adult readers.” -The Guardian. |
