This week we have been celebrating World Book Day. All pupils received a book token and are hoping to spend them very soon. We listened to a talk by Oliver Jeffers who showed the pupils how to draw the characters in his new book The Hueys. He then told his story “Stuck” and illustrated it as he told it. We all enjoyed this talk and are looking forward to enjoying more on Scottish Book Trust’s Author Live website.
We have also listened to a Happy World Book Day message from author of “Varjak’s Paw” S.F. Said.
To celebrate reading for pleasure we have been wearing “Ask me what I am reading” badges to encourage chatting about books.
