I hold a range of readings for children of all ages. I gave a presentation at the University of Georgia USA on writing for children, specifically challenging texts and issue based novels. I have travelled to China and worked in schools outside of the UK, holding events and activities on my books. I hold workshops/training sessions for professionals focused on nursery/primary reading, on how to raise literacy through the imaginative use of texts. I held creative writing classes in HMP Shepton Mallet and now give talks to young adults on BALANCE: a novel dealing with the negative impact of drugs. I am a regular contributor at festivals including Edinburgh International Book festival, Sheffield, Cheltenham, Birmingham and Bath.

Thank you for a great morning. We all loved your stories and talked about them all afternoon whilst wearing our masks! It was super to hear multi-cultural stories. There is certainly a shortage of good ones.

Kathryn White came to visit Burnbush Primary School as part of the Read a Million Words project taking place in Bristol. Kathryn spent most of the day at the school and went into several classrooms.

I sat in on one session and was impressed by how engaged the children were with what Kathryn had to say. It was an informative and active session and the children reacted very well to it. They were told all about being an author and had lots of questions. I would happily use Kathry again and in fact hope to one day when Read a Million Words has more funding.
