#IslandofWhispers is out in the wild! I've really enjoyed working on this, and I love #EmilyGravett's atmospheric illustrations.
It's a gothic fairytale ghost story sea saga, and today it has launched and set sail...
Ahoy, dear readers! Island of Whispers by bestsellers @FrancesHardinge and #EmilyGravett is out TODAY! 🎉☠️⚓️
A richly atmospheric, compelling gothic fairytale about grief, kindness and fulfilling one’s destiny.

It's a bear-y exciting day at Two Hoots because Wolf and Bear by @KateRolfeArt is out NOW! 🐾✨
A beautiful and delicately written picture book debut about a playful wolf and her best friend Bear, who sometimes feels sad and wants to be alone . . .

Cleverly written by @bnmnly and wonderfully illustrated by @hpillustration_
Vampire Peter is going on my wishlist of picture books to own.

Just to be clear, this move from the Roald Dahl estate to effectively erase his ouevre’s rougher edges isn’t millennial woke censorship it’s cynical boomer big business. Same as with Seuss, you’ve got an increasingly-dated author & an estate hellbent on cashing in the IP forever.

Tonight's #bookatbedtime is #TheMisadventuresOfFrederick by @bnmnly and illlustrated by @emmachichesterc ( a relative!🙂)
A fab story of back and forward messages between the risk-averse Frederick and adventurous friend Emily!

THE PIPSQUEAK by @bnmnly and @iamagardner is the charming story about how you don't need super powers to be a hero... or to transform enemies into friends.
Out today in paperback!

Sitting under a tree at the local park looking at my phone when three small children run up and ask if I will 'hold their leaves'. So I am now holding three sycamore leaves while they do cartwheels
