Superheroes! book launch Pt 2

The launch of the Leicestershire Virtual School’s book “Superheroes!” took place on Tuesday 8 October at the Sue Townsend theatre in Leicester. The event was sponsored by Leicestershire Cares and Checkprint, Hinckley.

Steve Cole, author of many successful children’s books, was our guest speaker, talking about his own journey into writing. He engaged, amused and enthralled the audience with his interactive tales (and singing) before presenting each child with their very own copy of the book to take home and treasure.

All our children had a 'gigglesome', great time, matched only by that had by the adults accompanying them.

A thoroughly rewarding and inspiring evening with well over a hundred people in attendance.

"Superheroes!" - an anthology of stories written by Leicestershire’s children in care.
