After recovering from Covid-19 last year, British poet and children’s author Michael Rosen will soon be releasing Sticky McStickstick, a personal memoir picture book that depicts his time in hospital and his recovery.

The 74-year-old former Children’s Laureate spent seven weeks in intensive care last year, between March and May, after contracting Covid-19.
