KATE Maryon is a highly
gifted children author, whose stories also are read and enjoyed
by just as many adults as children. Her work is focused
on fiction for girls aged 9 to 15 years of age, but is full of
thought provoking ideas and very well constructed social
commentary. She has already published 3 amazing books, with
the 4th to hit all books stalls in the UK, from 7 June 2012!
Kate was in Formby
Books on 25 May 2012 for a
pre-release signing of copies of her new book called:- "A
Sea Of Stars."
Those who where lucky enough to attend
got, not only the chance to get a signed copy of her new book,
ahead of national release, but also a chance to quiz Kate. Plus
all who attended received a free milkshake and a cupcake, not
forgetting Kate's glitter sprinkled in their books! if you want
to know why glitter was put in them, well you will have to read
them... We are not telling!
If you do not know what her new book
is all about, well it is a cleverly constructed book about
adoption, that is taken from a very unusual angle. It is set
around 2 girls whose lives collide. Both are from very different
backgrounds and the story explores the ideas of friendship and
family. It is a very beautiful and moving story. It is full of
emotion and explores the girls hidden and visual feelings, along
with the social baggage that they have to deal with.
It is
written in a very constructive and imaginative format, that is
easy to read, yet leaves a lasting impression. So as tensions in
this story rise and secrets come out, will the girls become
friends or even sisters? We can safely say that this book
is destined for TV or film at some point, as it is highly
original in its approach and judging from the following the
other books have, this one will be bigger still!
At the event
was also a very talented school girl from the Wirral. Kate's
number 1 fan, Vistie Marsden had in fact even done a video
review of Kates first books before attending and could not wait
to get her hands on the next 2 books. To see Vistie's video
review about Kate's first 2 books use this link
to watch
here. This young girl from
the Wirral not only captured the attentions of Kate, but also
ourselves... So we had to let her conduct a 1-2-1 video
interview with Kate for us! You can see it on the photograpic
and video coverage page, by clicking on
here now and the video
will also soon be added to
Southport.TV.
In fact we also
have another Youtube link for you. She was so keen to read her
newly bought 2 books that she added a new book review on Youtube only a few days later! To see the review she did click
on
here now! Both of her
reviews are very professional and we would like to bet that if
she keeps this level of quality up, well you might be seeing her
on the TV.
