About this audiobook
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.
