Children at The Froebelian School in Horsforth celebrated World Book Day with a visit from local author George Algar.

They attended classes to hear him explain the story behind his book The Shepherd Lord and read extracts.

Mr Algar said: “It was wonderful to meet so many children bursting with enthusiasm and peppering questions at me.

“I think they now understand a bit more about the creative process and how to structure their stories.”
