The Bigwoof Conspiracy | Dashe Roberts | Reading Rocks Review | Rothley Primary | Kids' Poems and Stories With Michael Rosen
This year Michael is working with LitFilmFest on 'Reading Rocks Reviews' to help children read and review their own books in class!
This month, Rothley Primary review 'The Bigwoof Conspiracy' by Dashe Roberts. What do you think of their ideas?
Your class can get involved (and maybe get a response from Michael!) by using the free writing unit at litfilmfest.com/reading. You'll join Michael and other famous authors such as Malorie Blackman, Liz Pichon, David Almond and Frank Cotterell-Boyce to learn about books and how to review them in the best way possible.
You can browse and buy all of Michael Rosen’s Books here:

Who is Michael Rosen?
My first book for children was called Mind Your Own Business and it came out in 1974. Quentin Blake did wonderful line drawings for it.
Ever since then, I’ve been doing these things:
Writing books
Writing articles for newspapers and magazines
Going to schools, libraries and theatres and performing the poems in my books
Helping children write poems and stories
Making radio programmes, mostly about words, language or books
Appearing on TV, either reading books, or talking about books
Teaching at universities about children’s literature
Running workshops for teachers about poetry
In any week, I might be doing all of these things! To tell the truth, I don’t really know what I’m doing tomorrow, unless I look in my diary to see.
