Author of the Month, Robert Muchamore, sends goodies for students

Mrs Litherland and Ms Marris were elated with the response after writing to Robert Muchamore... (Learning Lounge - 18/01/2016)

We write to all of the authors who are going to be Author of the Month, if they have contact details and are alive!!  Usually, we receive an email appreciative of this accolade, but in the case of Robert Muchamore he sent us a Goodie Bag!  We received stickers, postcards, wrist bands, badges, pens, posters and a signed copy of Rock War! 

Email response:

Hi Claire,
Thanks for letting me know about this. I'll pop you a little goodie package in the post to help you out, and do let me know if there's anything else me or my publisher might be able to do to help.
Just in case you're interested, I'm also doing some school visits in 2016, for the first time in a few years. The full details should be online before the end of the month athttp://www.muchamore.com/contact.aspx
I hope  you have a relaxing Christmas, and good luck with Muchamore related chaos in 2016.
Yours,
Robert Muchamore.

We felt we wanted to share this information.  The goodies have been put into our Goodie bags that we give away for our Booktrust Challenges.  So if you would like to gain a goody or two, have a go at a Booktrust Challenge.  At the moment (January) it is Terror Kid by Benjamin Zephaniah, and February's challenge will be Smart by Kim Slater.
