We’re always looking forward to Authors Live at Kirn so were eager to tune in to the latest broadcast featuring Children’s Laureate Chris Riddell. P4/3, P4, P5, P6/5 and P6 had already researched Chris and looked at a selection of books filled with his amazingly detailed illustrations. We had also prepared questions for Chris and emailed them in advance, hoping that one of our questions would be read out during the live show.

Imagine the excitement when Janice Forsyth announced that the next question was from Kirn Primary! Eden Johnston from P6 had asked “How did you feel when you found out you were Children’s Laureate?” Chris drew a picture of himself puffed up with pride, and now Eden is proud to display it here in Kirn.
