On Wednesday of last term we had a special guest visit our junior school. Mr Mac (Alistair McIntyre), the author of Doug the Digger visited our school in his very large truck as part of our Duffy Books in Homes programme. It was really interesting to hear how Mr Mac became an author. It was also great to see his original writing drafts and sketches and to see how they developed over time into a published book. We have some fantastic authors in Room 7 and I wouldn’t be surprised if some of them become published authors in the future!
