✨️NEW BOOK!!✨️

Book 6 of THE MATHS ADVENTURERS series is out on 5th June 2025!

When Beep and Boots notice that their library needs more books, they arrange a school fair to buy some more. Can they raise enough money to fill the library?

Favourite quote I read this week:

"Love for the world is love for the way the milk makes a thundercloud in the tea."

An all around good article as well: www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...
Lately I’ve become less engaged with the world. How do I find something to be interested in? | Leading questions
The world is a big thing to get interested in, writes advice columnist Eleanor Gordon-Smith. What if you start with the little things instead?

Scholastic UK made this lovely choose-your-own-adventure game for #FindMeAfter -- it makes me nostalgic for my lost youth obsessively playing the Fighting Fantasy books.

Timelapse of the full moon setting as filmed from my bedroom window... seemed as good a first post as any... (the sky isn't exactly blue though, more grey-->orange).
