Dan Freedman is 33 years-old and is the author of the bestselling Jamie Johnson series of children’s football novels.

Having previously worked as a writer for the England football team, schoolchildren are immediately hooked by Dan’s experiences in the game, meaning he is a completely unique position to encourage them to achieve their dreams by increasing their literacy standards.

Dan’s school visits combine his real-life stories of working with players like Beckham, Gerrard and Rooney along with his tips and insights into life as an author. His writing workshops have a remarkable effect, with even those students known to be reluctant and disinterested producing high quality pieces of work, often to their own surprise.

Dan regularly visits schools all over the country continuing his personal mission to ‘make reading cool!’
