The Boy with His Head Stuck in a Book
Tyne Bridge Publishing (Verlag)
978-0-9931956-2-4 (ISBN)
A book to inspire a love of books! An ordinary boy is dragged to the library one mundane Saturday afternoon, much to his dismay; there are a million other things he'd rather be doing! Glumly traipsing up and down the aisles, he comes across an ancient, mysterious book with a mind of its own, and when his head becomes trapped within the pages, he is catapulted into a magical world filled with dinosaurs, dragons, pirates and ghosts...
'The Boy With His Head Stuck In A Book' is an augmented reality or 'digital pop-up' book for children age 7-11 (Key Stage Two) but can be used for shared reading with younger pupils. It is a narrative poem about a boy who is disinterested in reading and prefers watching films (a good character comparison can be drawn between the protagonist and Mike Teavee in Roald Dahl's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory). The book was initially penned for reluctant readers; in particular boys, as there is still a reading attainment gender gap in both primary and secondary schools. The author, a primary English teacher, noticed that disengaged boys were more inclined to pick up a book with a technological element, a book which bridges literature and digital media."Picture books seem to have had a much quieter time lately and are, perhaps, awaiting a revival with some fresh creativity helped by new technologies and new interactions between readers and the page." - Barry Cunningham, OBE, 2016.
