Spotted in the Basilica of San Lorenzo, Florence… quite a place to find my books! Thanks for the photo Arena

REALLY looking forward to this! If you’re stuck for things to do on half-term and fancy a trip to the beautiful #IsleofWight there are lots of wonderful authors doing events. There are a few tickets left for my event, but going fast… it would be great to see you there!

‪Hurray, #Friends for a day is published today!📚‬ ‪ Over the years it’s been re-jacketed, and even re-titled, but I’m so proud to have Bart and the Bug still in print after more than 13 years. Thank you @hodderbooks and anyone who’s ever read it! #picturebook #kidslit #hodderchildrensbooks #childrensbooks #childrensbookauthor #illustration #childrensbookillustration #kidslit #kidsbookstagram #kidsbooks […]
