Out and about this morning collecting some bits and pieces for my woodland walk shows next Friday at Petworth House Sussex. @nationaltrust.bsky.social @nosycrow.bsky.social #sussexliteraryfestival #petworthhouse #sussexkids

Thank you for including Welcome to Our World. This whole selection is perfect. Good work!
Thrilled to see THREE books by brilliant agency authors in this selection. Congrats @moirabutterfield.bsky.social @pippagoodhart.bsky.social @mikebarfield.bsky.social - all experts in making books kids love to read.
Starting to write a new book and there's always a familiar feeling, like being at the bottom of a mountain with a long path ahead. I recognise this place, though. So - Head down. Foot forward. I need a bit of grit and focus and I will soon be halfway up. #kidslit #kidsbooks #kidlit #writing

Unfortunately this happened in a young relative's school, with teachers telling her she 'should do better' than her favoured books at the time. One very annoyed auntie (me) makes doubly sure she gets lots of books SHE loves.
We reached over 1.4 million children through our programmes in 2023/24, helping families to discover the lifelong benefits of reading together.

Baroness Kidron likens the Government proposals requiring creators to opt their works out of AI training to "a corner shop from which you can steal, unless they post a message saying you must not."
