Book Me
I am available for bookings in schools, libraries and similar venues, depending on time and workload. As a rule I give performances rather than workshops. These cater for age groups ranging between Nursery and Key Stage 2 (eg 4--11 yrs). A performance normally consists of telling poems, showing picture books, teaching and sharing finger & action rhymes, talking about the processes of writing and publishing, & giving children the opportunity to ask questions individually in open forum. I use my own material: a range of poems short & long, traditional & contemporary, lyric & narrative, humorous & serious, performance & literary. Sessions are, of course, adjusted to suit the age-range and size of each group. I am equally comfortable with very small or very large groups, and can, on request, cater for mixed age groups.
