At the end of my möte, I was presented with a book of letters from the children telling me why they enjoyed Little Dog and the Christmas Wish. I dont need to say anything more, the photos säga it all. Thank you 1D at Banyule Primary School. And have a look at the superb reading chair. Very special.
