Hi Kara, I have just ordered your book after hearing you on Radio 4 reading an extract a while back. It has been on my to-do list for a while. I was born in Yeovil and live and work there as a teaching assistant. Rural poverty is so often overlooked and I have seen the shocking impact of it on the children I work with. When I heard you read your extract, I thought this would be an important book and a great book for kids to study in school. Looking forward to reading the whole thing and congratulations on getting your writing career off to such a brilliant start.

Hi Vic,
Thanks so much for your message. I really hope you’ll understand what I was trying to do with King of Rabbits (it sounds like you will), and also that it does the themes I was exploring justice for you. I’m a local Somerset bumpkin too! It’s a place I absolutely love. I really hope you’ll get the “feel” of it in the book.
It’s funny you say that about kids studying it – someone else said that to me too!
I really appreciate you buying it (God, I was so scared on Radio 4 – Pahaha! Talk about nerve-wracking!)
Karla 🙂
