Very very excited to be part of this! Watch this space 🙌🙌🙌

My next book made it to the @the-bookseller.bsky.social guide! I Could be Eaten by a Shark is out May 1st! Published by OUP it’s my second with March Chambers 🦈🦈🦈

Not long now! If you live in south east London come along to Herne Hill this weekend! Stepping into Stories is on!

Just came across some lovely posts on X that I missed last year - as I don’t go on it much 😀.

Really happy to be coming back to Stepping into Stories this year! Come along on Sunday 9th for a story and plenty of fun activities! www.steppingintostories.org/event-detail...

🔊 Our 7th annual #ReflectingRealities report is out now! This year’s report shows a significant drop in the presence of racially minoritised characters in books published for children in 2023 in the UK.

First time doing a zoom session with a school today - and it’s for #bookweekscotland , 10 schools, 800+ kids! Terrified but also very excited. Being a writer requires so many more skills than I ever thought! Wish me luck 😁😁😁

It was such a great day!

Yesterday I got to read and chat about my next PB - out next year with Oxford University Press! It was pretty special. Got to keep celebrating the wins 🙌🙌

Finally can share the news! Absolutely thrilled to have been shortlisted 🤸🏻🤸🏻🤸🏻🤸🏻

Excellent article!! Lots to think about here.
