On The Line booklaunch at Sciennes

Launched 21.12.10

A unique book was launched today in the City Chambers with the help of 70 P7 students from Sciennes Primary School.

With the help of school parent and author Mary Thomson, the team of children have stuck to a six week deadline to take the book from initial concept through design and writing, to completed publication.  On budget and on time!   Well done.

Launch display

With illustrations from local artist Emily Katagiri, the result is (from the press release):

20 short stories written by the 70 authors, full of unfettered imagination and with concepts and challenges that jump out of the page.   The students have taken their heroes on an amazing journey, which resolves itself through recognising the consequences of their actions.

Authors at Edinburgh's  City Chambers

The book is published by local publishers Whitewater Publishing and it is available from Amazon for £6.29 or, if you need it for Christmas from Sciennes School office.
