Dementia Action Week 2019
To celebrate the launch of my new picture book ‘The Tide,‘ illustrated by Ashling Lindsey and publishing with Little Tiger Press, we timed a special blog tour to coincide with Dementia Action Week, 20th -24th May.
A Totnes Biscuit Bonanza!
It was lovely to return to Totnes Library, this time to delight in all things biscuits, books and pirate mice!
Love Your Library!
Ivybridge Library do an incredible job of supporting good reading habits and reading for pleasure, so it was an honour to spend the day with their hardworking team.
We ran workshops for visiting schools, focusing on empathy and understanding other people’s feelings, all based around my newest picture book with Olivier Tallec, How Rude!
‘A Really Rude Event’ at Totnes Library
Today’s ‘really rude’ event at Totnes Library was overwhelmingly wonderful!
Friends and smiley book lovers came out in force to celebrate the forthcoming publication of How Rude! and helped to teach Duck, who had been making silly faces at members of the public and leaving books on the floor(!), some manners!
‘A Really Rude Event!’ at Brixham Library
We had a lovely story session today at Brixham Library. Thank you to the little ones (and big ones) who joined us!
‘A Dog and Duck’ Book Launch
What an exciting day we all had celebrating the forthcoming publication of ‘Danny and the Dream Dog’ (written by Fiona Barker and illustrated by Howard Gray, published by Tiny Tree) and ‘How Rude’ (illustrated by Olivier Tallec and written by me, published by Quarto)
EXCITING ANNOUNCEMENT: How Rude! *Coming soon!*
EXCITING ANNOUNCEMENT!!
I am thrilled to say that I recently signed contracts for a new picture book!
Pirate Mice at Brixham Library
Today I visited Brixham Library for a story time session with a difference!
I knew to expect a great day, since Brixham delights in anything pirate, but I wasn’t expecting such a warm welcome and such enthusiastic books worms!
