Hear hear! A smashing read for all lovers of Middle Grade, written by a smashing author. Thank you too the whole team @LittleTigerUK and to the cover illlustrator Abigail Dela Cruz.
No time to go for a swim this week. Having to make do instead with looking at snaps of the sea taken after swims last week. Freezing - but oh so beautiful!
SPREAD THE WORD!! Our 2023 Picture Book Open Day to discover unpublished authors and illustrators in the North, Scotland and Ireland is happening in June! Submissions are now OPEN and close 30th March. For further information: bit.ly/OpenDayHN23 Thanks @BookBrunch
Swimming between rain showers early this morning. Fab to be back in the sea following a break whilst in London for work. (Fab to be in London too, mind you.)
Swimming in Galway Bay early this morning, with the Clare hills in the distance. Beach was deserted, apart from me, one other swimmer and some seagulls. Bliss!
A treat for all and flagged by @CharlotteLEyre in Friday's Bookseller (thank you, Charlotte). Woodland Magic 2: Deer in Danger by Julie Sykes @juliesykesbooks thebookseller.com/previews/w… What could be more adorable than a baby deer saved from danger?!
With beautiful things in mind, I'm so pleased to share the cover of THE DASTARDLY DUO, Yusuf's second adventure in the My Laugh-Out-Loud Life series, gorgeously illustrated by @farahkhandaker with @Marssaie@_KnightsOf (out March 17th)
ALT Bright yellow cover with three 10 year olds (two Asian and one white) in blue uniform causing chaos.
So pleased to see this gorgeous cover out in the world. It's perfect for this most heart-warming of MGs. Counting down to Sept publication day already. Well done @jools_forrest and #DavidDean. Thank you to the team @scholasticuk
