Sue Wilsea, PhD student in Creative Writing at Newcastle University, used Kit Wright’s poem, The Magic Box, as inspiration for a group of primary school children to write poetry of their own, in the Creative Writing After-School Club she led during 2014.
This is a link to Kit reading the poem himself.
Some of the poems written by the children of Cragside Primary School, Newcastle, are to be found on this website under Writing and Performance, Young Writers 2014.
Sue’s own website shows her own love of writing.
