In this programme, Michael Rosen interviews the author Malorie Blackman and the creator of Horrid Henry, Francesca Simon. Malorie tells Michael how a game of noughts and crosses inspired her award-winning book, which seriously challenges conventional views of race and prejudice. The book, Noughts and Crosses, is now turning some teenagers into avid readers. Michael also discovers what it was like living through a revolution as Sir David Winkley shares his memoirs of being a headteacher at a school in Handsworth, Birmingham when the streets were overtaken by violent rioting 20 years ago. The Reading Aloud panel read Sir David's book, Handsworth Revolution. Winsome Thomas, Victoria Shaw, and John Richmond explore the many issues raised by the book that has become something of a template for those seeking to turn around a failing school.

One evening, stuck with her dad on his night shift at the British Museum, she is drawn to the Lewis Chessmen and Heimdall's Horn. Unable to resist, she blows the horn, waking three chess pieces from their enchantment; the slaves Roskva and Alfi, and Snot the Berserk. They are all summoned to Asgard, land of the Viking gods, and told they must go on a perilous journey to restore the gods to youth. If Freya refuses she will be turned into an ivory che... -

In this programme, Michael Rosen interviews the author Malorie Blackman and the creator of Horrid Henry, Francesca Simon. Malorie tells Michael how a game of noughts and crosses inspired her award-winning book, which seriously challenges conventional views of race and prejudice. The book, Noughts and Crosses, is now turning some teenagers into avid readers. Michael also discovers what it was like living through a revolution as Sir David Winkley shares his memoirs of being a headteacher at a school in Handsworth, Birmingham when the streets were overtaken by violent rioting 20 years ago. The Reading Aloud panel read Sir David's book, Handsworth Revolution. Winsome Thomas, Victoria Shaw, and John Richmond explore the many issues raised by the book that has become something of a template for those seeking to turn around a failing school.

Malorie tells Michael how a game of noughts and crosses inspired her award-winning book, which seriously challenges conventional views of race and prejudice. The book, Noughts and Crosses, is now turning some teenagers into avid readers. Michael also discovers what it was like living through a revolution as Sir David Winkley shares his memoirs of being a headteacher at a school in Handsworth, Birmingham when the streets were overtaken by violent rioting 20 years ago. The Reading Aloud panel read Sir David's book, Handsworth Revolution. Winsome Thomas, Victoria Shaw, and John Richmond explore the many issues raised by the book that has become something of a template for those seeking to turn around a failing school.

One of the bestselling children's authors in the world, the creator of the "Horrid Henry series", launches an exciting new novel for children aged 8+. Freya is an ordinary girl living in modern Britain, but with a twist: people still worship the Viking gods. She's caught in her parents' divorce, and shuttling between bickering adults is no fun. One evening, stuck with her dad on his night shift at the British Museum, she is drawn to the Lewis Chessmen and Heimdall's Horn. Unable to resist, she blows the horn, waking three chess pieces from their enchantment; the slaves Roskva and Alfi, and Snot the Berserk. They are all summoned to Asgard, land of the Viking gods, and told they must go on a perilous journey to restore the gods to youth. If Freya refuses she will be turned into an ivory chess piece but, if she accepts her destiny and fails, the same terrible fate awaits her.
