ThE aGe WrItErS fEsTiVaL!!!!




On Wednesday the 30th august, 2006, our class went on an excursion to the Age Writers Festival.

It was held at a thetre in Melbourne.

We learnt about Writers and about their books they have written.

The first speaker was Nick Earl. He was really funny. He spoke about his book: 48 shades of Brown and told us what it was about. He had also created a movie from the book which was preimiering on september 31st.

The second speaker was an Australian Muslim who wrote a book about muslim teenagers. her book called: Does my head look big in this? is about muslim girls who wear the hizabh on their heads. She also told us about her life as a muslim and the experiences she went through when she wore the hizabh on her head!!

It was a really good experience and the whole day turned out to be much more interesting and fun than i thought it would be!!!!
