A few snaps from today's story-inspired adventures in Oxford. First stop Lyra and Will's bench in the Botanical Gardens, then on to The Story Museum where we stepped through the wardrobe to Narnia, played pooh sticks in Hundred Acre Wood and met a flight of dragons.

One day I'd love to see the cherry blossoms in Japan, but in the meantime there's something much springtime beauty on my doorstep ❤️

A walk in the woods = visit to my happy place. So good to get outside and seek out the first signs of spring.

My supervisor is keeping a close eye on my writing progress today. I can't tell if he's impressed or not, but he's very vocal!

Does anyone else find rainy days inspirational for writing? There's something about the sound of raindrops on the windowpanes, isn't there?
And I've got this beautiful new notebook ready for a new project.

When it's cold and wet outside, the best thing you can do is snuggle up and relax. Happy Caturday!

There's something very pleasing about seeing cats sitting on the window ledge, keeping watch over the world.

Love this - and all of your choices! Choosing just four is so hard - I've been thinking about this for ages. I can't not include The Dark is Rising, as it's one of my all-time favourites, not just childhood favourites...

My mum has some of this edition - I loved them as a child. I now have a beautiful edition my book-loving husband bought me for Christmas a few years ago.
The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe will always be my favourite of the series and one if my all-time favourite books.

Leaning into the snow theme... What's your favourite children's book featuring the cold white stuff?
The Dark is Rising by Susan Cooper still has one of the most atmospheric openings of any book I've read. #kidlitUK

It's not quite Narnia, but there was certainly something magical about this morning's dusting of snow.
