Sonic screwdrivers through the decades.

Congrats to Ian Eagleton whose new book #TheBoyWhoCriedGhost is published today. It’s a lovely book dedicated to Ian’s late dad and inspired by one of his many jokes. It’s a story with heart that juggles the spooky and the personal. #books #childrensbooks #kidslit

Excellent news - a new David Almond book! Out in September. #books #kidslit

Happy Birthday Ron! 🎂

One of the new #London #banksy artworks popped up just down the road from me near the river. I thought it would be rude not to stop writing and go and have a look. Pleased to report that the magic of modern #streetart was drawing quite a crowd.

Absolutely delighted to find that our new graphic novel, Global, has made the Wainwright Prize Children’s Shortlist. Honoured to be in such great company. Congratulations all! #Wainwrightprize #childrensbooks #graphicnovels #wainwrightprize24

The wheel of the year turns. My kids went back to school today. The house is quiet again, until they return later with tales of excitement and outrage. Here’s a few pix of a school visit with Eoin and Gio from the American tour for our graphic novel Illegal. Happy first day
