Chain Read at the Bluecoat
Whilst Jen, Charlotte and a few others were speeding down to London on "Frank's Train" for the launch of Our Read, I was happily reading away at the Chain Read down at The Bluecoat (all photos c. The Bluecoat and TRO):
It was a really fantastic day, and lots of people turned up to read The Unforgotten Coat aloud in the foyer of The Bluecoat (which had been spectacularly decorated in a Mongolian style, complete with plenty of unforgotten coats!). We had a huge crowd in the morning, with a few schools taking part and lots of interested passers-by stopping to read along with us:
Thanks to everyone who came down to support us on the day - especially to those who read aloud - we all had a brilliant time!
