Resource Pack
A FREE set of teaching resources to be used in conjunction with, Call Me Lion is available to download via the publisher website: Call Me Lion resource pack I designed the resource pack with the help of the publishing team at Firefly Press and is endorsed by current KS2 teachers. On the publisher website you will also find videos of the first page reading and meeting the characters. If you would like to order copies of Call Me Lion you can do so here or at your local bookshop or by using the Waterstones website. If you would like to read about the book launch you can visit my book launch page. Remember that I'm always looking for school bookings and if you would like to know more please visit my author visit page. |
Author visits can be virtual. Please watch the video to find out more.
I can visit virtually. For only £150 you'll receive YouTube links to 4 short videos and a live Q&A session on your choice of platform. The videos are: Workshop 1: The Idea, Workshop 2: Developing Characters, Workshop 3: Story Structure and Workshop 4: Redrafting and Editing. Alternatively you may want to skip straight to the live Q&A which is charged at £50 for up to 30 mins. It's really easy to to book, please just contact me and it's done in two emails!
Videos
I have a selection of videos that you may find useful that you can find and watch by visiting my YouTube channel. Some of my videos are only available by Contacting Me for the link. This is because they are not professionally produced, and/or because they've been made for teachers/students who are wanting to find out a little more about me and my personal history.
Free Resources for other titles
Previous to Call Me Lion I devised a number of different teaching resources that are FREE to download and are all in PDF format.
The resources do need to be used in conjunction with Jarred Dreams, so the school will need to order the book in, either direct from my website, from the publisher, or from your schools usual book supplier/distributer.
The resources are all directly linked to the curriculum. To download just click on the title that you would like and follow the instructions.
