Students ask Michael Morpurgo about writing a legend
Students interview the author Michael Morpurgo about how to write a legend and he explains the differences between myths and legends. The author advises that you use what is thought to be true as a basis for your own writing. In describing how he often begins his work in the present day as a device for his readers to relate to historical characters of legend, he uses the example of his book 'Joan of Arc'.
