Hornbrook; referring to current legislation; argues the case for an organized curricular framework for drama in the 1990s which develops in children the activities of designing; directing; acting; writing and evaluating - all within the range of the historic context of dramatic work. He asserts that recent drama teaching in Britain has been child-centred and psychological; and viewed as a learning medium rather than as an aesthetic study in itself. This; he believes; has had the effect of cutting children off from the variegated world of the theatre and; in the broader sense; from any collective aesthetic or historical dimension. This book is intended mainly for the use of primary and secondary school teachers.

Bye Bye BirdieBy S RiazI have adored Shirley Hughes since I was a child and; when I discovered she had written a graphic picture book for adults; I just had to see it. Now; it is worth pointing out that this book has no text and the illustrations are all black and white; but if you know anything about the artwork of Shirley Hughes; you will know just what magic she can create with just a few lineshellip;The story begins with our unsuspecting hero spying a beautiful woman/bird; who then proceeds to chase him through the pages. There are huge birds who devour him; birds who erupt from pies; huge eggs which hatch out. Will he escape? If you are a fan of Shirley Hughes; you will love this madcap adventure through the pages and I found it delightful.
