Need help and ideas?

Don't worry because you can see a video where author Michael Morpurgo shares his tips on

One thing Michael recommends is "Reading, reading, reading!".

As tomorrow is World Book Day 2010 and you'll be given a £1 book token from school - make sure you exchange it at a book shop for one of the special
WBD £1 books.

And why not pop along to your local library - where books are free to borrow?

Happy World Book Day 2010 and good luck with the competition too!
