He is best known for his book 'War Horse', which was published over 40 years ago and adapted into the hugely successful stage play by the National Theatre. At the festival, Michael will be reading from his latest book, The Whispering Tree.
Fifty years ago, Michael and his wife, Clare, started the charity Farms for City Children which has offered over 100,000 children and teachers from urban primary schools the chance to live and work in the countryside for a week, and gain hands-on experience. In 2018, Michael received a Knighthood for services to literature and charity. His latest book is The Whispering Tree, published by Harper Collins Children’s Books.
