Visiting author: Thelma Eakin

Image result for the mines afireYesterday T1 and T2 were lucky enough to have "The Mines Afire" author Thelma Eakin. She answered our questions and we had a look at a safety lamp and a copper version of 1 of the miners statue in town. She co write this book with her friend Susan Battye. We are reading this book at the moment, it is very interesting. One interesting thing we learnt was that Mr O'Flynn actually locked the door so the kids couldn't escape, but they managed to escape in the end. We all felt very lucky to have her yesterday.
