#393: Congratulations to Samantha Harvey

In post #372, I added a mention for Samantha Harvey's book 'Orbital' and added it to the GCSE Natural History booklist.

On Tuesday this week, the book was announced as the winner of the 2024 Booker Prize!

Well done to Samantha. I was hoping that the book would win. I hope that it leads to lots more people experiencing this excellent book.

I am planning a new unit based on the book which I shall be teaching to Year 6 students in January 2025. More to come on this as the project develops.
