Bonus: Frank Cottrell-Boyce edits Today

Frank Cottrell-Boyce, the UK Children's Laureate, is Today's
first guest editor this Christmas.


His programme focuses on whether we should rethink our approach
to reading - and make reading to young children a public health
priority.


And he gets the chance to interview none other than Dolly Parton
- about why she's turned to writing children's books.
