Michael Rosen


Primary 5 classes joined thousands of children in schools across Scotland on World Book Day to watch Michael Rosen in a live web cast performance of poetry and chat.


Michael told stories and performed poems, seamlessly moving from one to another. The live web cast was quite different from just watching a TV programme - we were part of it all, waving at the screen and joining in with the poems and doing the actions just as if we were there too.


The web cast was done jointly by Scottish Book Trust and the BBC. There will be highlights available at www.bbc.co.uk/authorslive
