Coming from a family of actors, bestselling children’s author Michael Morpurgo likes to joke that were it not for a twist of fate he could have been the next George Clooney. In fact, Morpurgo’s has been a life of many careers including some time in the army, heading up a charity and for many years working as a teacher where he loved to read and act out stories for the children. Finally exhausting his supply of other people’s tales he decided to try his hand at writing his own.
