OVER THE MOON to have created the artwork for this year’s brilliant #BOOKSHOPDAY! Thank you so much Books Are My Bag…Now, get that date in your diary…

1 WEEK TO GO! For me, the best thing about publishing a book is having days like yesterday- painting bookshop windows, having day-long bookish chats with bookseller friends, signing pre-orders, meeting readers, laughing, celebrating & sharing Poscas with the best of author pals🥰

One week to go until 🐦‍🔥THE GREAT PHOENIX OF LONDON 🐦‍🔥! Still 99p on kindle! Out in the busiest book month so any shares are 🙏😍 (If you liked Darwin's Dragons...you'll definitely like this perilous fiery flight against time 🐦‍🔥🐉) Deal: amzn.eu/d/48ShHJH

I hate that the ‘Early Readers/ First Fiction’ books often get overlooked so much by the #KidLit #LibrariesMatter communities because 👀 at these beauties?! Absolutely necessary foundations to reading & are also super cool?! Maverick Books You are KILLING it right now ✨🖤✨

I adore this series and think this might be their most exciting adventure yet! Jo Clarke (Updates only) Firefly Press myshelvesarefull.com/2024/09/05/lib…

This is why we are here!!!

GodsSquad... this is your ONE WEEK warning! OH WHAT A KNIGHT will fight its way onto the shelves on 12 Sept, the final instalment of the WLTGO universe. Vesper and Aster must travel to Camelot to awaken King Arthur and his knights... but it's never that simple, eh? xxx

Doing a reading survey with a class at the start of the year is always incredibly useful. More skate magazines and books about engineering, increase my range of character voices from three and give them (even more) reading time. Great way to start building reading relationships.

This book is an absolute banger 🙌🙌🙌 Perfect for teens & tweens who love hilarious books with a solid gold heart AND the most epic of rap battles 🤎 ALL OF THE STARS from me ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
