Vanda Ejsymontt

Originally from England born in Yorkshire in 1957, I have been a primary school teacher and worked closely with children for over thirty years. I have always taken a keen interest in children's literature - both narrative and visual - and am passionate about empowering young people to become involved actors in respect of environmental issues. I have used these interests as teaching platforms throughout my time as a primary school teacher. The COVID-19 crisis inspired me to write a children's book that would provide an historical account; highlight environmental issues; and provide an educational tool.
