Jackie French Quotes

A lot of dyslexic kids are actually more intelligent than average and are very good, because they’ve got very good memories, at disguising the fact that they can’t read or have got problems in reading and literacy Picture Quote #1

I’d love to see a new form of social security ... everyone taught how to grow their own; fruit and nut trees planted along every street, parks planted out to edibles, every high rise with a roof garden, every school with at least one fruit tree for every kid enrolled Picture Quote #1

The song and dance didn’t stop us dying. It just stopped the fear of death swallowing us up while we were still alive Picture Quote #1

There is still in many schools complete misapprehension that children with reading difficulties are stupid. It is so easy to teach a child that they’re dumb. There needs to be a recognition that you need different ways to teach children who have got reading problems Picture Quote #1

Very much in my books people find not surrogate families because they are real families. We’ve got families that we’re related to by blood but we’ve also got families that we acquire. And those too I think are pretty much part of my books Picture Quote #1

Often the true hero and heroines of my books are the houses, the places, the communities where people find a home Picture Quote #1

When someone is missing the really hard thing is that you never really do give up hope, even though the inquest says that she is dead, even though right from the beginning we already knew that we wouldn’t see her again Picture Quote #1

For me books have always been an incredibly solid part of my life, both as escapism and simply as resource Picture Quote #1

I might be able to find out what happened 6,000 years ago but I will never know what happens 6,000 years in the future! And that is not fair, blast it Picture Quote #1

I’ve always found the world is the most extraordinarily fascinating place and the more data you get, the more you can actually put pieces into this jigsaw Picture Quote #1

A book can change the world... Every book a child reads creates new neurons in that child’s brain Picture Quote #1

I’d love to see a new form of social security... everyone taught how to grow their own; fruit and nut trees planted along every street, parks planted out to edibles, every high rise with a roof garden, every school with at least one fruit tree for every kid enrolled Picture Quote #1
