Super Readers For Multicultural Week - David Reads 'The Time Of The Lion'

 

This week is multicultural week. Four pupils visited the library to record stories from around the world for you to listen to across the week. David is the first of the four, reading a story set in Kenya. The story follows the friendship of a boy and a lion. I'm sure you'll agree that David reads the story brilliantly!
 

 

Here are some pictures of Kenya...
