World Book Day - busy, busy...
[image error]Well, I've been a right busy bumble bee this past week - yesterday, March 1, was World Book Day, and in advance of that I was contacted by various interested parties asking if I could come and talk to children about books and reading, so I was delighted to oblige. On Tuesday I met two groups of children from Newport School in Eason's bookshop in Nenagh, County Tipperary; on Wednesday and Thursday I visited two lovely country schools in County Cork, Ballintotas National School just outside Midleton and Clonpriest National School just outside Youghal, and this morning, Friday, I was in Hughes & Hughes bookshop in Ennis, County Clare, telling stories to four year olds and chatting about all things bookish to older girls, all from Scoil Críost Rí. I really enjoyed my week - everywhere I went I got a great welcome, not to mention lots of cups of tea and coffee, and I even scored a few scones!
