One Button Benny with Alan Windram

Benny is different, Benny is special, Benny is a Robot. Benny has a big red button in the middle of his tummy with the words ‘Only Press In An Emergency’ on it. Benny has never pressed his button but one day something happens and he has to press it.

Alan Windram leads this highly interactive picture book event for lower primary pupils with singalong songs, song writing, storytelling, visuals describing how illustrator Chloe Holwill-Hunter created Benny and his world. There will definitely be some ‘robot dancing’ too.

One Button Benny won the Bookbug Picture Book Prize 2019.

Shetland Arts would like to thank the Shetland Islands Council, Scottish Book Trust & Shetland Library for their support of the Wordplay outreach programme.
