Benjamin was many things to many people. To me, he was a guiding light. I looked up to him long before he became my friend and mentor. We can all learn so much from Benjamin’s writing and broader legacy. I send my love to Benjamin’s family and everyone feeling this enormous loss.

We LOVED the awards ceremony for the @royalsociety Young People's Book Prize! Presented by @SHSKSchool alumna @Linds_bluepeter, with loads of questions posed by our judging panel included in the author Q&A, and a cameo appearance in the video montage! Amazing to be part of it...
