This week KS1 had a visit from author Zanna Davidson who writes the ‘Izzy Inventor’ series of books. Zanna told us all about the inventions developed by children including earmuffs, trampolines and ice lollies. The children helped Zanna read from one of her books before they helped her make slime. Finally the children asked some great questions about how long she had been an author and how her books were illustrated.  

For those who have bought Zanna's books, here are some extra tips: 

To make slime, buy contact lens solution that contains boric acid (like Renu or Bausch & Lomb)

Add shaving foam to make it fluffier, and glitter too

To make water balloons last longer – cover the paper with a wax crayon first

If you did not order the books but would still like to purchase copies, please contact Michelle Dalby @My Bookbug. Sales of Zanna's books have already raised £360 for the school to spend on new Usborne books!
