The shape I’m in: Eoin Colfer, children’s laureate

“We are hoping to be here until our youngest son is finished primary school — which is one more year. And then we’ll go home,” says the author of the best-selling Artemis Fowl series and Laureate na nÓg, Ireland’s laureate for children’s literature.
In the meantime, Colfer is making the most of his temporary location, which includes frequent visits with wife Jackie to local eateries.
