World Book Day at St Luke's

Last week was very special as it contained World Book Day. To help celebrate this, Steve went along to visit all the children at St Luke's school in Duston. It sounds like he had a fantastic time and everyone had lots of fun. St Luke's have got great names for their classes such as Ladybirds and Bumblebees. How cool is that???
Some of the children worked on a character for the new Charlie books. I've only just started looking through these but there are lots of great ideas and lots of wonderful pictures of what the new character might look like. There are pictures of owls, pandas, rabbits, cats, a giraffe and even several bin weevils! Mandy especially likes the butterfly called Sparkle and I liked Sophie the koala as she comes from Australia like I do!
Some of the other children were very helpful with ideas of what Charlie might do on his first day at school. It looks like Charlie might have some surprises as he trips over his tie or falls in a muddy puddle! Everyone agreed, however, that he has a fun first day at school and makes lots of new friends.
In the afternoon, Steve visited some of the other classes and read my new book 'Harold Wins Gold'. This was the first time anyone had heard this story! I hope everyone liked it and all of Molly's fab pictures.
I must go now and continue looking through all the drawings and story boards.
Keep on reading everyone!
