Her books are wonderfully imaginative, action-packed, suspenseful and filled with vividly humourous characters and situations with great messages about human nature.
And today, January 21, 2008, she’s celebrating her 83rd birthday. (Happy Birthday, Ms. Ibbotson!)
On this edition of Just One More Book, Mark speaks with author Eva Ibbotson about — among other things — her childhood experiences, her writing process and style, and why children connect with orphans.
Books mentioned:
- Which Witch?
- The Secret of Platform 13
- Journey to the River Sea
- The Star of Kazan
- The Harry Potter Series
