Just listening to series 2 of The Gift on BBC Radio 4. It is extraordinary and whilst I'm happy for the family, I'm so intrigued by Jessica and how she has coped with this unbelievable trauma. Anyone else listening?

I don't believe in "good reading" & "bad reading". Comic books, graphic novels, manga, picture books, joke books, sports reports, all kinds of poetry & prose: it's all reading, and it's all good! Let kids read for pleasure - and they'll be readers FOREVER! #reading #literacy (Art: Bill Watterson)

A few pics from the latest R&D sessions for The Mab. It was so good to see some old friends and some new faces. This week we’re at the Sherman Theatre. It’s always a joy to work with the incredibly talented bunch at @takingflightco.bsky.social ♥️🎭

I was at the wonderful @storyvillebooks.bsky.social yesterday, and signed a load of stock for them. Overnight, the shop and many of their neighbours were devastated by flooding. Please help them out by buying from them online, and help spread the word. uk.bookshop.org/shop/Storyvi... #KidLitUK
