FREE PICTURE BOOK TALK! @candygourlay.bsky.social and I have basically coerced our illustrators, agents, editors and art directors to do this FREE EVENT to celebrate our new books, LITTLE RHINO LOST illustrated by Jamie Bauza, and THE BEAR THE HARE AND THE FAIR illustrated by Matt Hunt.

I can't get to London for the protest but I wish I could! How dare you steal our work Meta!!! Thank you to the @societyofauthors.bsky.social and to my publisher @nosycrow.bsky.social who are doing everything they can to protect our copyright.

The Bear and the Hare and the Fair written by me and illustrated by Matt Hunt is out on the 10th April but you can pre-order from Waterstones and get a 25% discount which is an actual BARGAIN! #teachers #primary #KidLitUk www.waterstones.com/book/the-bea...

I had such a lot of fun at @nationaltrust.bsky.social Fountains Abbey today, We munched and we moo-d and made fabulous flower pictures and hats. It's Benningbrough tomorrow for lots more fun with Annabelle and Flower @nosycrow.bsky.social

If you're ordering Annabelle and Flower in February then please consider using @bookshop-org-uk.bsky.social instead of the bad place. Thanks! #primary #librarians #KidLitUk

Happy book birthday to Annabelle and Flower! It's been a long pregnancy, from first idea in 2020 to an actual book in 2025! But she's here and she's gorgeous 😍 Thank you to @ambercaraveo.bsky.social , the @nosycrow.bsky.social team and Anuska Allupez for the incredible illustrations.

Annabelle launches Thursday 13th Feb! And you can order signed copies from @bookcornershop.bsky.social bookcornershop.co.uk
Beautifully illustrated by Anuska Allepuz! @nosycrow.bsky.social @ambercaraveo.bsky.social

Hi Sam, I'm a #Kidlituk author and very happy to say my latest pb is out on 13th Feb. Beautifully illustrated by Anuska Allupez and published by @nosycrow.bsky.social #librarians #primary

These gorgeous postcards arrived for The Bear and the Hare and the Fair! And I'm feeling very lucky to have Matt Hunt as the illustrator for this series!

Thank you so much to everyone who borrows books from libraries. PLR is such an important income for authors. I'm so happy my Witch School books are being borrowed by so many children and they're now available on some online library systems! #KidLit #primary #teachers @nosycrow.bsky.social

First animated bk reveal! Anuska Allepez's fab illustrations have brought Annabelle and Flower to life! Thanks to @ambercaraveo.bsky.social & nosycrow.bsky.social team for all the wordy fun! Out in Feb in conjunction with @nationaltrust.bsky.social #pb #primary #librarians #teachers #kidlituk

Swoopy do! The Bear and the Hare are at the Fair! Pb's take ages so I've been wishing the time away until Matt Hunt's fabulous illustrations can be revealed in all their technicolor glory! Out in May but you can always pre-order! #PB #primary #librarians Big thanks to the Crows and Amber Caraveo!
