I was really interested to hear today about a national competition to find the country's best children's mum or dad, grandma or grandad, teacher or librarian story reader - someone who is really, really good at reading aloud.



Today I spoke to Cressida Cowell, author of How To Train Your Dragon, who's launched the competition along with the Children's Laureate, Julia Donaldson, who wrote The Gruffalo. They think there are hundreds of brilliant unsung heroes, busy reading all the time, who need to be recognised.

If you want to know more about it, go to their website - or get in touch with me, cos I'd love to hear you do your thing on the radio!
