Guest Speaker at Middlesex University Dubai

I was recently invited to deliver a workshop for trainee teachers at Middlesex University in Dubai. It was such a joy to share valuable insights from my journey as a published children's author. We had a wonderful session exploring the craft of creative writing for children, the adventure of becoming an author, and how picture books significantly enhance early learning. We also had fun examining how illustrations and text come together to bring stories to life, sparking young readers' understanding and imagination.

“Clare’s passion for children's literature was truly inspiring. Her session was both informative and engaging, leaving our students excited about the creative possibilities of teaching with picture books.”

“I thoroughly enjoyed Clare’s visit, she shared her experience as an author with enthusiasm and passion. I have always wanted to write my own children’s book, Clare has truly inspired me to start this journey”

“I didn’t realise how much learning can come from a single picture book! Wow, your knowledge was amazing. I can’t wait to delve into more pictures and realise their potential for learning opportunities”
