In partnership with @Literacy_Trust, I've done a virtual version of my FOOTBALL READING GAME for the men's Euros. It's free. For the classroom or the home. It promotes reading through #EURO24. Please use and pass it on. youtube.com/watch?v=1LVg2s6V…

I would love to see photos of my book in the wild, if anyone spots it and is willing to share. 🥰

It’s double publication week! Here is my dream-come-true World Book Day book: Creepy Creations. Such an honour to be part of WBD, and I would never say no to the opportunity to write more Dread Wood stories! Modelled by Mabel because I look like a snot monster with an eye patch.

I had no money growing up. My dad was a labourer and my mum did everything to make ends meet. Men worked hard. Women worked miracles. But education was free. As was the local library. I knew books were my passport to a better life. Happy #WorldBookDay
