Mr Harris Makes It Up, Paperback / softback Book

Mr Harris Makes It Up Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Manchester, 1977, Graham Harris a compassionate, newly qualified teacher, is struggling to inspire his class of bottom-stream 11-year-olds when a 6ft Redcoat soldier marches into the classroom and changes everything - for the children, and for Graham.

So begins his campaign to transform these young lives with a passion for drama.The trouble is, not everyone approves of his radical thinking, and dark forces in the staffroom set out to undermine his approach. 'Mr Harris Makes It Up' is a humorous heart-warming and gritty odyssey through life in a northern city at a time when kids were obsessed with Space Dust, Blue Jeans magazine and the Bay City Rollers - but it has plenty to say about the role of the arts in schools.
