Today I am out of the studio visiting Coates Lane Primary School, in Barnoldswick near Skipton. I had to get up at the crack of dawn (if only - in fact it was some hours before dawn) to be ready for a 6.30 taxi collection (ghuh...).
By the time you read this, I will already have read some stories and drawn some pictures with Reception and Year 1. I should have munched my school lunch (I always loved school dinners when I was a kid: I have very fond memories of the cheese pie...) and by now I should be doing some book signing.
Since Mrs Boon only needs me to work with KS1, we've been able to set aside a whole session for signing, which means I can take my time and do little drawings in all the books the children buy, which helps to make them that bit more special.

See you later!
