I can certify this book is substantially better than whatever James might be claiming.

My newest book 'Toby and the Pixies: Pixie Pandemonium' is out NOW! I'd normally link to where you can buy it in the Phoenix shop but it has already SOLD OUT, so here's a link to Blackwells instead: blackwells.co.uk/bookshop/pro...

A boy in a red sweater sits at a dinner table, and he is shocked to see that all the vegetables have come to life with naughty little faces.

Looks awesome! Looking forward to playing it and giving the kids one more reason to fight each other.

Happy birthday! Take the dog with you. It’s very dog-centric, as superhero films go.

I did, twenty years ago. Took 3 or so years to fix it, but it has been doing a passable job since then.

I broke my neck, and later had a slipped disc in my lower back, both got much better with a specialist physio and a lot of quite tedious exercise. None of the other stuff helped much when things were quite acute.

Join me for some Saturday morning doodle ridiculousness on the 12th of July! I can almost certainly guarantee some hilarity and maybe a dash of weirdness too! www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/squid-bits...

Well done fella, very well deserved!

Thiago de Moraes @tibolota.bsky.social · May 12

I’ve been tallying up my own 25 years of incalculable damage. There’s a lot to choose from, but wearing questionable jeans around 2012 and writing some terrible puns are currently top of the list.

“Mighty Myths and How to Survive Them” by @tibolota.bsky.social is a wild, irreverent romp through mythology. It brilliantly illustrated, properly funny yet full of details, facts and stories. It’s a perfect book to browse and explore. As a kid it would have been read again and again. Fab stuff!

Thiago de Moraes @tibolota.bsky.social · May 8
