Upcoming author visit: Phil Earle

The GCH Library are delighted to announce that another great author will be visiting us soon! 

Award-winning novelist Phil Earle will be visiting Grey Coat on Monday 7th February.

He will be speaking to all students from years 7 and 8 during period one about his latest book When the sky falls. Phil will also be hosting a workshop for a smaller group of students later in the morning.

Copies of When the sky falls will be available to purchase on Monday 7th but we advise students to pre-order a copy from the Library to avoid disappointment. Books will be sold at the special GCH price of £6 rather than the standard £7.99!

Phil will also be available to sign books at break.

If you'd like to read a book by Phil Earle before his visit we have a good range of his works available right here in St Andrew's Library.

Titles here include: When the sky falls, Saving Daisy, Mind the gap, Heroic, The bubble wrap boy and Being Billy


Remember, order forms must be in by Thursday 3rd February!


When the sky falls by Phil Earle

'Inspired by a true story. Its 1940, and Joseph has been packed off to stay with Mrs F, a gruff woman with no great fondness for children. To Joseph's amazement, she owns the rundown city zoo where Joseph meets Adonis, a huge silverback gorilla. Adonis is ferociously strong and dangerous, but Joseph finds he has an affinity with the lonely beast, But when the bombs begin to fall, it is up to Joseph to guard Adonis's cage should it be damaged by a blast. Will Joseph be ready to pull the trigger if it comes to it?'
