"Ibuku menikah lagi setelah kematian ayahku - perwira Angkatan Udara Kerajaan lainnya, dan tipe pria yang sangat berbeda. Kami pergi ke Australia ketika saya berusia delapan atau sembilan. Kami tinggal di sana selama beberapa tahun, dan kemudian kembali dan tinggal di Wales Utara selama masa remaja saya ... Saya belajar menulis puisi cukup banyak. Saya hanya bersenang-senang membaca dan membaca dan membaca. Jadi di situlah saya melakukan sebagian besar masa pertumbuhan saya."

--- Philip Pullman

Versi Bahasa Inggris

My mother married again after my father's death - another Royal Air Force officer, and a very different kind of man. We went to Australia when I was eight or nine. We lived there for a couple of years, and then came back and lived in North Wales for the whole of my teenage years... I learned how to write poems quite a lot. I just had a good time reading and reading and reading. So that's where I did most of my growing up.
