How did it go?
Children’s Bookshow patron and national treasure Michael Rosen charmed an audience of over 1000 children and their teachers this morning at the New Theatre in Peterborough. Michael treated us to many of his brilliant poems, including classics such as I Was Born in the Stone Age, No Breathing, and Chocolate Cake! We were delighted to gift every child a copy of Mustard, Custard, Grumble Belly and Gravy. Noice!
