What a treat the children in Reception had today with a
visit from the author of Handa’s surprise stories Eileen Browne. They delved
deep into their imaginations acting out the animals in the story through
actions, a lot of fun was had pretending to be a Zebra! They discussed where
the story was set with Neveah commenting“it’s in Africa” and looking for the
country on a map. They were even treated to an exclusive reading of Eileen’s
new story ‘Handa’s noisy night’. It was a very enjoyable afternoon and it was
amazing to see the thought process which is involved in creating a story and seeing
how talented Eileen is especially with her illustration of a mouse.
