A poem a day till @PoetryDayUK Today's is on the theme of WONDER and was written after asking a class of young children what they liked playing with. One small girl replied, 'I like playing with stars.' What a gift to a writer! brian-moses.blogspot.com/201…

Congratulations on 40 years of enchanting us. My 2 grew up with your books and adored them. One frosty day we packed the whole winter picnic and had our own Old Bear adventure.
Today it is 40 years since my first book 'Old Bear' was published. To celebrate, 5 of my favourite books are published today as a treasury of adventure stories and my publisher Templar have sent me a wonderful box of tiny book biscuits. I have to share them of course! #oldbear
