Event overview
Sally Gardner, winner of the 2013 Carnegie Medal, talks to Adam Mars-Jones about her extraordinary career as a writer, after being despaired of in education.
The legendary Sally Gardner, author of Maggot Moon, which won the 2013 Carnegie Medal, talks about her career as a writer. Sally waa dyslexic at a time when the condition was regarded as a form of stupidity, and her turbulent school life reflected that assumption. Now she feels that dyslexia is a form of imagination in its own right, and has campaigned to raise awareness of it. She writes for age groups from early years (the Tin Dim series, Matchbox Mysteries), for adults (An Almond For a Parrot) and everything in between.
