@vashti_hardy Hi from Eckington Junior School! Our year 5 and 6 children are reading Brightstorm, and loving it! We are about to move onto a diary entry in writing lessons. We were wondering if you would be able to set them a little task writing a diary from the perspective (1)

@JennyMcLachlan1 We are loving the Land of Roar so far and we haven’t even made it to Roar yet! We would love to know how you had/have the confidence to write books. (Question from a Year 4 child)
