Pupils in Ancrum Road and Glebelands Primaries were treated to a visit from the completely splendid author Gill Arbuthnott last week. (Click here for photos).

Gill enthralled her audiences with details of, and facts about, the creatures in her book. From lizards that shoot blood from their eyes to shrews that travel in caravans!

On top of a fantastic author session, every pupil received a copy of Crazy Creatures to keep and Gill signed each one to make it even more special!
