No 25 in my #FavePicturebooks24 is…

β€œThe Walk of The Field Mouse” by #NadineRobert and #ValerioVidali. Is a fantastic story of persistence where the journey is truly its own reward and that self belief is key. A Sisyphean quest elegantly illustrated. Just beautiful #PicturebookPage

Welcome commitment to social care reform by the government.

The real details of plan still required, but expected that many of the MacAlister report’s findings will be enacted.

Why, oh why, did I have to grow up in the 70's?
Here is 'Good looking gear' in the 1973 Kays catalogue. Including 100% terylene outfits.
I'm not telling you which outfit my mum ordered for me.

I loved this as a kid. Seeing it transports me straight back to early 90s. I can feel the way it slotted into its case and hear the buttons clicking. I wonder how many of these are hiding in boxes in people's attics. I'm pretty sure I have this to thank for a half decent level of mental maths!

Hi. My name's Chris and I'm the author of the children's mental health book That's Okay.

I've come off Twitter because I don't fancy seeing Musk's propaganda go ballistic over the next 4 years.

Time to start over I guess. πŸ™‚ Hi, I'm Darrell. I make stuff, mainly out of things you'd normally throw away. I work with children and young people, lots of them. I make 3D artwork, mainly in schools . . . and I make sculptures myself, share them online, and hopefully inspire others to have a go. πŸ‘
