Children's Insight event I learnt that a teacher reading to their class for 20 mins a day can change students’ lives… plus, as this picture proves, it’s so much fun! ❤️🙌

I'm on the train with a v chatty little girl who is around 5 yrs old. So far she's asked strangers the following amazing questions:
Have you got a secret for me?
Who's the boss of you?
Who sleeps in trains?
What do you have in your pocket?
Do you like clapping? I love clapping!

Congratulations Nicky Smith-Dale 🍄 & Sarah Horne on one of the funniest children’s books I’ve ever read 💙

‘Betty Steady and the Toad Witch’ is a beauty of a book & it was so lovely to celebrate it tonight with the dream team Farshore.

I found this to be an extraordinary reading experience. Thankyou ⁦Sarah Crossan⁩ I do regret reading the second half of it in a busy hospital waiting room though with tears streaming down my face, I just couldn’t put it down.
