Extractions: Bernice T. Hunter Bernice Hunter Thurman was born in Toronto in 1922. She has been interested in writing since childhood. In her teens she met her idol, L. M.

The famous author complimented her good imagination and true-to-life characters however, she also advised her that a writer must have a university education. Unfortunately, Bernice came from a very poor family and had no chance to go to university. Even so, while raising her children she continued to write, often making her children heroes in her stories.

Palette Borgeois When kids ask Martyn how to be funny in a story, he tells them to do three things. One: Create a ridiculous character (some of Martyn's favourites can be found in books by Gordon Korman). Two: Put that character in a ridiculous situation (for example, knocking over a vase on a class trip to a museum). Three: Include slapstick which includes a person in authority who has been written to be unlikeable (for example, the vase falls on the principal's head). Try it yourself!
