It'll be available on Amazon in print as of tomorrow😊 That'll be your cheapest bet. Thalia should have it in print within the month too I think, but it'll probably be a bit pricier because that copy will come from our UK printer.

Thank you so much! It's been an absolute rollercoaster the past 24 hours. We're beaming and exhausted here after no sleep last night and totally in awe of how lovely people are. 🥰

Any typos spotted in this post are a little bit overwhelmed and very grateful for everyone's wonderful support for their new book. If spotted, don't mind if they seem a little sentimental and tired. They just need to maybe have a nap and a hot cup of tea. It's been a very big few days.

Two snortling small humans (3 & 5?) have decided that they cannot possibly get into the car until they first:
Spin around this pole here...
Then jump over this crack... here
Then do some vigorous jumping on the spot... here.
Dad waiting with his arms crossed, chest heaving with a huge sigh. (5)

Three small humans (2-6?) are all scrunched up together on a bench seat in front of a public piano.
They're working on a masterpiece!
What it is, no one knows!
The important thing is that they're all having fun.
Fingers racing over the keys.
Chortles and giggles and plinkety plonk. (4)

A woman (50s?) stops abruptly next to a newly vacant lot, exclaiming to her partner: "Look! A rogue iris! How special is that?!"
Grinning she points to a pretty purple flower that's popped up from between cracked concrete slabs where a block of flats used to be. (3)

A woman (60s?) is carefully making her way through the markets with the help of a walking stick covered in bright red Christmas tinsel. She might be a little slow, but she's sparkly. People smiling in her wake. (2)
