James Catchpole | Virtual Author Visit
Recorded Live: June 2, 2022
Join us for an author visit with James Catchpole! James’ book, What Happened to You? explores what it is to be different. Get ready to laugh and learn with this author visit.
About the Book
What happened to you? Was it a shark? A burglar? A lion? Did it fall off?
Every time Joe goes out the questions are the same . . . what happened to his leg? But is this even a question Joe has to answer? What Happened To You? is a ground-breaking, funny story that helps children understand what it might feel like to be seen as different.
About the Author
James Catchpole was destined to be either an itinerant singer or an amputee footballer. He managed to get off the substitutes’ bench a couple of times for the England Amputee Football Team, and also busked around Provence with a guitar (another profession where it actively helps to have one leg), but reached the limits of his talent in both fields by his mid-twenties, and so joined the family business of children’s books. He now runs The Catchpole Agency with his wife Lucy. James and Lucy live in Oxford, England with their two young daughters.
