P.3 visit Edinburgh Book Festival
On Wednesday 22nd August both P.3 classes went to the Edinburgh Book Festival to meet the author Chae Strathie and his friend Ollie. Chae Strathie read his books ‘The Loon in the Moon’ and ‘PING!’ He told us in an amusing way how he writes a story. We had to create and name a planet and an alien. The planet was named the ‘Toothbrush’ planet and the alien who lived on it was called ‘Harry Bumble‘.
At the end Chae read his book ‘The Jumblebum’ which is out in the shops in January 2013. We are the first people to hear this story!
The space theme in some of the books has encouraged us to do a space project.
We had great fun listening to Chae and Ollie
