The only negative from a brilliant w.b. Week was a couple of comments saying there weren’t enough books for boys. Boys aged 9 or 10 telling me they didn’t what they were offered because they were for girls. We need to change the thinking and make sure there is something for all

Really excited that one of my first pantos - Beauty and the Beast is being put on by All Saints Drama Society in Boscombe over the next two weeks. If you’re local and fancy a laugh, come and support this brilliant group. It’s probably the best show I’ve written. Oh yes it is…

This is so true. Like family films, we write books suitable for kids but aimed at everyone. There is nothing wrong with an adult picking one up and reading it, just like there’s nothing wrong with an adult enjoying Toy Story or Infinity War or Big.

I've said this before, but it still needs saying. The books that we call "children's books" are really books written for an audience that includes children, but excludes no-one. They're books for EVERYONE - not some lesser form of literature, but the most important books of all!
