Pupils in Years 4, 5 and 6 at Fielding will be celebrating World Book Day early with a virtual author visit from Lisette Auton- is a northern disabled writer, activist, poet, novelist, spoken-word artist, actor, film and theatre-maker, and creative practitioner. She's an award-winning poet who has performed at Northern Stage, ARC, the Southbank Centre and the Sage, in pubs, in a crypt, at festivals, indoors, outdoors, on a bridge and in a launderette. THE SECRET OF HAVEN POINT is her debut novel.
