Farewell Alan Ahlberg - here’s a little baby one, two, three… stands in his cot. What does he see. Janet and Alan shaped a generation with their books.

It was read to me by my Junior School HT in the 80’s. I still read it to my KS2 children now. Faux rage whilst reading ‘Scissors’ still gets a laugh. RIP Allan.

Sad to hear of the loss of #AllanAhlbergRIP His poetry books “Please Mrs Butler” “Heard it in the Playground” were actual life-savers when I started teaching. Having children I realised how wonderful his picturebooks and stories were. A great children’s writer and a big loss.

Gosh 💔 What a huge loss to the world of children's literature. #AllanAhlberg's co-created stories shaped the foundation of so many hilarious, magical reading moments of my childhood... His books will live on. And in ways even he couldn't imagine... theguardian.com/books/2025/jul…

My children love reading this book in the run up to Christmas. Many happy hours and memories. It never loses its magic. ❤️ #RIP #AllanAhlberg #TheJollyChristmasPostman

Very true- ❤️❤️

Why read books? Because books are still the most powerful, reliable, transportive & magical storytelling technology we've invented - and all they need to work is YOUR OWN IMAGINATION! #books (Cartoon by Maria Scrivan)
