It’s getting towards that time of year!

Delightfully spooky illustrations from the wonderful Laura Brenlla

I think that having a child choose one of your characters for @WorldBookDayUK is a HUGE author goal!

And this year I was spoilt rotten!

Just LOOK at all these gorgeous Flamingos, Dodos and a Sammy! 🥰🥰🥰

Feeling like a very lucky author!

There really is nothing like World Book Day and a school full of lovely kids to get the writing juices flowing!
And just look how brilliant the teachers were!

Delighted to see Jill Scott reading Sammy Striker!!

She’s the third Lioness legend to read it now! A hat trick for Sammy!

She shoots!

She scores!

Delighted that The Rainbow Flamingo has been shortlisted for the Calderdale Picture Book of the Year! 🎉

Go Adele! Show those feathers with pride!

Playing around with Lino printing. Lots of fun and a great way to pass a rainy ‘no-rugby’ Sunday!

Delighted to hear that ‘The Dodo Who Dreamed She Could Fly’ by me and Claire Powell was featured on CBeebies today as the lunchtime story!

I would love to be able to watch it! Anyone know if there is a way to watch? I can’t find it on Iplayer!
