My first fabulous day at Shen Wai International School, Shenzhen!

Yesterday and today I met the fabulous kids, teachers and library staff at the impressive Shen Wai International School in Shenzhen! We had eight fun-filled sessions, with the Nursery Kids meeting ALL my stuffed toys and the characters in my Dirty Stories, the Pre-Kindies and Kindies meeting Chester Choi, the Grade 1s meeting Pin Yin Panda, the Grade 2s and 3s meeting Rodney Ram, the Grade 4 and 5s meeting Sybil Snake, and the big guys and girls of the Middle Years program meeting my Dark Horse! Phew! And needless to say everyone learned a lot of fascinating Chinese folklore, history and culture! My lovely host was Teacher Librarian Joanna Tomaszewska, and she looked after me like a princess! Here we are above in front of a fabulous painting of Pin Yin Panda, then there’s me under the SWIS Reading Tree simply swarming with all my stuffed toys, and last of all, a trip by tuk tuk to dinner!  It was fun!
