Author of the term

If we were at school, we would have an author of the term in our reading areas, to try and broaden the children's vocabulary, imagination and choice in stories. Year 2's author of the term is Alex T Smith. He is a very funny author and illustrator with the popular Claude series. After speaking to his company, Arena Illustration, they have allowed me to share parts of the stories in private videos with our year group like we would at school. I will upload links for the different stories soon, hope you enjoy them.
