In Stepnica, it turns out that the children are very well acquainted with the first part of the Saltamontes Chronicles – \u201cEscape from Darkness\u201d. Thanks to their teacher, Anna Bochniarz – Mutkowska, not only do they know it inside out but they also drew some beautiful pictures to illustrate it. During our session, we talked about the characters, the storylines and the adventures in the book (with questions such as, \u201cWhy were the boys heading for Iano in Italy?\u201d, \u201cWhy did you decide to call the dog Meatball?\u201d), but we also discussed … motorbikes and travelling (\u201cWhere in the world have you travelled to and where would you still like to go?\u201d and \u201cWhat motorbike did you use to ride and what do you ride now?\u201d). The children were clever, smart, and wonderful, as ever. If we hadn\u2019t been pushed for time, we\u2019d have happily spent a few more hours on some creative conversation, because the double period proved to be too short. A big Thank You to Ms Bochniarz – Mutkowska, the children and the Head for inviting me yesterday – and here\u2019s to our next meeting! The atmosphere was warm and friendly, the smiles on the children\u2019s faces priceless and the cake delicious – I\u2019m sure to pay this place another visit (with the third part of the trilogy)<\/span><\/p>\n
