Joseph Coelho was here with two Year 8 classes today.

 

He said that at a young age he was behind with his reading and learning.

 

Finding his library and teachers brought his creative ideas together - writing and performing his stories and poems.

He has published over a dozen books including anthologies and ‘Fairy Tales Gone Bad’

 

Try ‘Zombierella’ for something scary and creepy.

Joseph read from ‘The Girl Who Became a Tree’ - a story told in poems

 

You can borrow this now from GTS library.

Enjoy the mixture of real life, myth, and fantasy - it’s a powerful exploration of grief and renewal.

We had a sneak preview of his latest ‘Fairy Tales Gone Bad’ book.

 

Thank you for coming to GTS Joseph Coelho!
