Grandad Wheels Author Visit

Duration: 6 hours

Reedley Primary School - Achieving Today For Tomorrow`s World

Dear Families,

On Tuesday 6^th December, we have an author, Brian Abram visiting the school and reading his stories with all of our students.  Brian is a full-time wheelchair user and his books are called ‘The Adventures of Grandad Wheels!’

In Brian’s books he tells hilarious stories of his silly adventures with his grandson.  His books aim to show that anyone in a wheelchair can have fun and be fun to be with.  Quentin Blake (illustrator of the Roald Dahl’s books) said of Brian’s first book, “It’s an impressive piece of work!” We have all read some of his books and we have really enjoyed them.

Brian will sign copies of his books and can include a dedication to your child.  You can buy the books at a discounted price of just £6.00 each (or £20 for all four) and Brian will donate all proceeds from these sales to two important charities that support people who have suffered a spinal injury - the Spinal Injuries Association and Back Up.

If you would like Brian to sign a book for your child, then please complete the form and send £6.00 in an envelope with your child’s name and class on the front by Monday morning so that we can have themready for the children when he visits on Tuesday.

For more information have a look at Brian’s website, www.grandadwheels.com

Thank you 

Mrs Ellis
