Books are magic.
I'm very lucky to go into my childrens school and listen to children read. A child who 'hates' reading, read me Perfectly Norman and then went home and put on his own wings, because he now loves reading! Books are magic!! @TomPercivalsays

Remembering the fun children’s game show ‘Knightmare’, where running out of time and life force was represented by a head slowly losing its flesh. Loved being taught about the transience of life in such a visceral way just before having fish fingers for tea, aged 10.
