#RomantasyBooks are very popular right now, and we received this amazing feedback from a #schoollibrarian about a recent visit from #descentintodarkness series author @andydarcytheo.bsky.social 🤩

We can help you arrange all aspects of your visit with Andy, including a book signing 🖋📚

As he comes to the end of his November tour, we thought we would share some of the fantastic feedback we've had for best selling author Chris Bradford. ⚔📚😎

We still have some availability for a few 2026 tour dates, but these will be snapped up very soon - get in touch now to book!

Looking ahead to #NationalStorytellingWeek in February, a visit with a storyteller isn't just for the younger years and experienced storytellers like Cat Weatherill deliver magical days for all age groups.

If you would like to book Cat to visit your school, we'd love to hear from you.

If your students love graphic novels and manga, then we would most definitely recommend an author visit with manga illustrator @sonialeong.bsky.social 🎨🖼🖋

Sonia's illlustration workshops always go down a storm and are a brilliant way to get reluctant readers into books!

It's #InternationalMensDay so we're sharing some feedback about one of the most multi-talented men we know!

Kev Payne is a poet, illustrator, non-fiction author, he's been a town crier and a Punch and Judy show puppeteer as well as a teacher! We're really not sure how he's found the time!

Kylie from our UK Bookings team welcomed a brand new puppy into her family this weekend. Here he is being a very good boy and enjoying having a story read to him! 🥰

New #bookmarks are almost as exciting as new #books!! 🤩📚🎉

These will be on their way to schools as part of our book supply service, and the new design will promote the feeling of book ownership for young readers and help avoid missing reading books! 🥰

We all know author visits engage young people with #readingforpleasure but did you know some authors give talks on #STEM topics too?

Here's a thread of suggestions for visiting authors who give real cross-curricular value and can help young people see STEM subjects in a completely new light.
