Flamboyant television presenter Tommy Boyd got the youngsters laughing at
Flamboyant television presenter Tommy Boyd got the youngsters laughing at the Examiners first Book Bringe, held at the Ladbroke Hotel, Ainley Top. There was an afternoon of party fun and frolics for the 250 children who attended the event, organised in conjunction with the Childrens Bookshop, Lindley. Tommy is pictured far right with, from left, Mrs Sonia Benster, of the Childrens Bookshop, and authors Paul Jackson, Patsy Merrick, Ann Jungman. Activities included fancy dress and colouring competitions. In addition to hearing Tommy, author of You ve Got To Be Joking, the audience also had the chance to listen to the four other writers talking about their books, which include Vlad The Drac and the Turbulent Times Of Tyke Tiler. Mr Jackson, author of Tricks And Games To Play With Paper, showed the children how to fold paper to make a noisy thunderclap. Fish fingers and chips, jelly and orange squash were on the menu, and afterwards the authors signed copes of their books. 20th October 1986
