Today, Des hunt came to visit Waikwohai Primary. He made us a presentation. He is a famous writer in New Zealand. In my class our teacher is reading us one it is called sunken forest. The year 4 and 3 went together first. They finished at 10.00. After they finished year 6 and 5 went. he showed us his first book, he wrote but when he went publish it they kept coming back with a letter in it, it said your book can not be published so for 3 years he did nothing.
My favourite part was when he had this ramp with mar balls and he said from the bottom the mar ball has to reach the top so he tried on his first time but it did not reach the top so he got a magnet and put it on the ramp he put two mar balls on the top and rolled the mar ball down and sudenly it went up but still did not reach the top so he put another magnet on top of that magnet and rolled the mar ball down but did not reach the top so he put down his third magnet and once he rolled one mar ball it reached the top and rolled off so he got gong and said can somebody hold this for me and It was me I was nervous because the mar ball might hi my face but it hit the gong.
Now that I have seen Des Hunts presentation I will read more of his books and keep trying if you get rejected use same tricks that he did to become writer. ask more questions on his website.
