Patrick Fisher: Storytelling Superstar!
World Book Day is fast approaching and this year they have launched a search to find the UK and Ireland’s best performer of stories for children – the first Storytelling Superstar.
We believe The Reader Organisation’s very own Patrick Fisher certainly has superstar potential, as anyone who saw his hilarious turn as MC Extraordinaire for last year’s Ha’Penny Readings in Liverpool will agree. As Reader-in-Residence for Glasgow schools, Patrick spends his days reading aloud with children across the city, bringing stories to life and capturing imaginations.
Here is Patrick’s brilliant Storytelling Superstar entry, complete with a truly impressive range of funny voices, Bird-Table Blues by Clare Bevan.
You can watch the other entries on the Storytelling Superstar YouTube channel. The competition closed on Sunday and the winner will be announced on World Book Day itself, 1st March.
