| Suzanne signed many copies of her book |
Last night I went to
the Wellington launch by Fleur Beale out at the Children’s Bookshop at Kilbirnie
of Suzanne Main’s How I alienated my
Grandmother. It was a very
happy occasion with many of Suzanne’s friends and family who had gathered to congratulate
her both on the publication of the book and on its being awarded the Tom
Fitzgibbon Award 2014. (The book had already been launched by Fleur in Auckland
at the Margaret Mahy Day a couple of weeks ago)
There was a table full
of delicious child appreciated food - much enjoyed by a group of (mainly) small boys
who divided their attention between this and listening quite spellbound to the
reading of the first chapter of the book.
