Quote by Michael Morpurgo
Wherever my story takes me, however dark and difficult the theme,

Wherever my story takes me, however dark and difficult the theme, there is always some hope and redemption, not because readers like happy endings, but because I am an optimist at heart. I know the sun will rise in the morning, that there is a light at the end of every tunnel. – Michael Morpurgo
