Shona and her dad are moving house, and the rules at Shona’s new school are pretty weird. She keeps getting into trouble without realising! But when she’s unexpectedly given a mobile phone, Shona starts to suspect there’s something fishy about the new boys she’s met. Not all gifts come for free, after all…” Check out Michael Rosen’s website for news and updates: http://www.michaelrosen.co.uk You can browse and buy all of Michael Rosen’s Books here: https://www.michaelrosen.co.uk/books/ Who is Michael Rosen? My first book for children was called Mind Your Own Business and it came out in 1974. Quentin Blake did wonderful line drawings for it. Ever since then, I’ve been doing these things: Writing books Writing articles for newspapers and magazines Going to schools, libraries and theatres and performing the poems in my books Helping children write poems and stories Making radio programmes, mostly about words, language or books Appearing on TV, either reading books, or talking about books Teaching at universities about children’s literature Running workshops for teachers about poetry In any week, I might be doing all of these things! To tell the truth, I don’t really know what I’m doing tomorrow, unless I look in my diary to see. #Michael Rosen
