This week it’s our Christmas show and Leigh Chambers and Alex Ruczaj are focusing, appropriately, on writing for children. Our studio guest is award winning children’s author, Tony Mitton. His lyric collection, The Red and White Spotted Handkerchief won the Smarties Silver Award in 2000 and his latest book, Wayland The Blacksmith, was recently Children’s Book of the Week in The Times. We also have interviews with authors, Greg Gormley (Dog In Boots, Cat Trap and Monkey Words) and Michael Catchpool (That Yucky Love Thing, Grandpa’s Boat and Hopping Mad). We find out how they get inside the heads of their readers and welcome some new – and younger – interviewers to the programme.
