'The Windsinger' by William Nicholson - 'Kestrel Makes a Horrible Friend' (dramatisation)
William Nicholson introduces his first book 'The Windsinger'. He describes his book as being set in a fantasy world and he begins to read the chapter 'Kestrel Makes a Horrible Friend'. His words fade and we see the main characters, Kestrel and Bowman, being made an example of by a tyrannical teacher. A narrator underscores the mood of the piece with descriptions of feelings and supplementary information about the characters, including the fact they are telepathic.
