Another week another author! This monday went to Loughborough library to listen to a talk by Andrew Cope, the author of the Spy Dog series. He was amazing with the children and held their attention from the moment he opened his mouth. He brought with him his dog Lara who was the inspiration for the Spy Dog series and she was without a doubt the best behaved dog I have ever seen. She allowed the children to pet her and laid down quietly throughout the whole talk. He had never even thought about writing a book until getting Lara and it was seeing her silly behavor while watching a James Bond film that set his imagination going. If only our dogs would inspire me like that! ActualIy I could see Rogue and Miko as a doggie bonnie and clyde or Indiana Bones and his sidekick.
Sam really enjoyed the talk and was awed to meet Andrew and at the end and to chat to him about our dogs.
