When I was a kid, Tony Hart was my absolute hero, but I never once thought I’d end up teaching kids how to draw on the telly like he did!

This week I was invited to chat about my ‘Maddy Yip’ series with Janice Forsyth and fantastic studio audience from Westerton school, along with dozens of other schools via streaming. Thanks to the brilliant crew at BBC Scotland and Scottish Book Trust, they made what could have been a scary live TV event really enjoyable in the end.

I also read an extract and did a doodle, so if your kids would like to watch, you can find me and loads of other authors & illustrators on .
