Afternoon Rhyme Time with Rappaman

Afternoon Rhyme Time with Rappaman

Join us for an exciting reciting and singing afternoon of rhymes and musical interaction with interactive storytelling. With our local and international children’s author and performance poet Donavan Christopher, aka Rappaman.

Donavan Christopher is a celebrated Huddersfield-based performance peace poet and author. His fourth children’s book Read Aloud Proudly is packed with rhythmical reading delights, a 12-poem reading challenge, performance poems and word play. The book is focused on promoting and encouraging the joy and value of reading as an essential key skill for life.

A social educator and peace poet, a thought provoker, a lyrical charmer, a word energiser and a people enlightener, his aim is to fight inequality to make things equal through his philosophy of R.A.P., which simply stands for Respect All People.

About Donavan Christopher

Donavan Christopher first made a name for himself as Dee Bo General, a Sound System Operator/DJ on Armagideon Sound, promoting conscious roots reggae music. He launched his first Rappaman children’s book in 2008 and since then has worked in schools all over the world, delivering workshops and performing poetry for all age groups around social values, culture, and respect of self and other people.
