Francesca Simon, author of the popular Horrid Henry series, will be participating in Authors Live on World Book Day. She will be speaking on her life as an author and her character, Henry.
The event will be streamed live to audiences in the UK on March 1st at 11:00 am. Those of us in other parts of the world will gain access to a canned version of her presentation a week later on March 8th. The program will be appropriate for ages 5-12.
The program is presented by the Scottish Book Trust. It’s a great way to celebrate World Book Day, even if you have to wait until the following week.
Hmmm, these didn’t go well at our library – I just weeded them. Henry was a little too horrid for our parents, plus he sounds too much like Horrible Harry. I thought they were mildly funny, but my patrons don’t seem to agree. Oh well.
