Barny Books has been going into schools now for many years.
We, or a writer, take an idea into the school and the children will then take the active role. They are divided into groups (writers, editors, illustrators, publicity etc), working with the writer to produce a book from beginning to the final end product, designing the cover and layout of the book as well as deciding on the content, along with organising a book launch and recording sales. The scheme fits in to the National Curriculum.
