Geraldine McCaughrean that what makes her love writing is the desire to escape from an unsatisfactory world. Her motto is: do not write about what you know, write about what you want to know. Her work includes many retellings of classic stories for children: "The Odyssey", "El Cid", "The Canterbury Tales", "The Pilgrim's Progress", "Moby Dick", "One Thousand and One Arabian Nights" and "Gilgamesh". J. M. Barrie gave all rights to "Peter Pan" to Great Ormond Street Hospital in 1929, and in 2004, to coincide with "Peter Pan"'s centenary, the hospital launched a competition to find the author of a sequel.

Street children in Bangladesh celebrate the International Street Children Day 2012 with the support of SCI. The International Day for Street Children was launched in 2011 by the Consortium for Street Children (CSC), the leading international network dedicated to realizing the rights of street children worldwide. The day is celebrated by street children, NGOs, policy makers, celebrities, corporate and individuals across the globe. The street children in Bangladesh are unable to go to school and as a result, they do not get proper education. It is very important for them to study as they will find themselves spending the rest of their lives miserably.
