Nick Barnard
I really like reading - obviously! Because I love reading so much I also have a
passion for writing my own stories. I also love drawing. When I grow up I would
like to be an author. My favourite books are the Chaos Walking series and A
Monster Calls by Patrick Ness. My favourite movie is Spud whichwas adapted
from John Van de Ruit's novel.

from reading include, soccer, chess, writing stories and video games. My
favourite books are, Jasper Jones by Craig Silvey, After by Morris Gleitzman
and the Gone series by Michael Grant. My favourite movies adapted from books
are, Lord of the Rings, The Help and The Hunger Games. I'm looking forward to
the World Final in Durban and meeting all the other teams.
