A new study suggests children who struggle to speak at the age of two are less likely to do well when they start school.

Kids who own more books and are taken to the library as toddlers are also more likely to achieve higher scores.

The research by the University of the West of England, Bristol, Sheffield and Edinburgh University looked at how the environment in which a child learns to communicate affects their readiness for school.

Denny Bradbury, denny bradbury books, Dorset, West Dorset

Dorset Coast

Dorset Coast

Walking over the impressive hills of West Dorset has to be one of the most inspiring things for a writer to do. It runs close second to sitting and contemplating by the relentless sea. There are some stunning places to visit all over the world, I have been to a few but we should perhaps try to remember that we have some spectacular places here in the UK. A few years ago I spent some time in Northumberland and was blown away by its beauty. Lindisfarne has a special magic and is on my list of places that I feel I must see again and again.

Back to Dorset, this morning as the sun chases the rain away the whole world seems that little bit brighter. The pain in the world doesn’t go away but by acknowledging what is good may just help to rebalance and reach out fingers of hope to replace despair.

Bloomsbury, Denny Bradbury, denny bradbury books, ebooks, Harry Potter

The publisher of the Harry Potter books has recorded a massive jump in the sales of e-books.

Bloomsbury reports it sold 1-point-1 million pounds’ worth of electronic literature in the first three months of this year.

That’s compared to 1-point-5 million for the whole of 2010.

The majority of those sales were in America but the company says demand is increasing in the UK.

Denny Bradbury, denny bradbury books, far from the madding crowd, Thomas Hardy

Thomas Hardy

How great to hear fom Rhonda in the USA. It is marvellous to be able to share a passion for something, Hardy’s writing, with people all over the world. My particular favourite was Far from the Madding Crowd. We studied it at school and I was instantly hooked and have been a fan ever since. Discovering his poetry was a revelation for me too. His love poems are rather tortured as he seemd unable to love what was within his reach, only when women were unobtainable (like his dead first wife) did he truly realise his feelings. I wonder if he was difficult to live with!
