Chaotic farmyard adventure Oh no, Flo by Catherine Cawthorne and Mike Byrne looks absolutely brilliant! Out 27/03, for 0-5 readers, huge thanks go to @CourtInABook @templarbooks 🐾

I don’t suppose anybody would like to buy a book tonight. I’m stressing about big bills week, it’s not getting any easier and lately I’ve been wondering how long we can keep doing this. I know I’m not alone in this, lots of small businesses are facing difficult times.

Long story cut short... you’d be barking mad to miss #JamesDavies’ #LongDog a laugh-out-loud tale of a boy and his very loooong dog! @CourtInABook @templarbooks lep.co.uk/arts-and-cultu…

Roar, stomp, beep, toot! Little hands will love exploring I'm a Dinosaur & I’m a Car two gorgeous dinky shaped board books by @ruthsymons & #MatthewScott @CourtInABook @templarbooks lep.co.uk/arts-and-cultu…

Learn first words & enjoy playing with an ingenious shape-sorter with inventive board book #MatchtheShape by @ruthsymons & #SusieHammer @CourtInABook @templarbooks lep.co.uk/arts-and-cultu…

Wish You Were Her! Neurodivergent YA, coming this summer. It's about a celebrity who gets a summer job as a bookseller in a small town book festival and falls in love with a grumpy colleague. Preorders are open!!

And so, she’s here. The last book in the Vivi Conway trilogy, Vivi Conway and the Lost Hero, will be out on the 8th of May this year. You can preorder it at the link in my bio. And would you look at this incredible cover by Harry Woodgate?!

Our #BookOfTheDay is a super picture book with a lovely message about choosing to believe in magic! It's the fabulous #YetisDontExist from Katie Thompson (@writes_kate) and @Loretta_Schauer: booktrust.org.uk/book/y/yetis-d… @templarbooks

It's an absolute JOY to see @NateLessore on this list with #KingOfNothing 👑

The best way to spend a morning has to be watching @writes_kate and @Loretta_Schauer talk about #YetisDontExist with @_Reading_Rocks_ 📚 I've also FINALLY drawn my very own Yeti, with the perfect name... if I do say so myself ❄️

Our #BookOfTheDay is a dynamic graphic novel which covers themes of identity and representation really skilfully. We think young readers will love #AnzuAndTheRealmOfDarkness by Mai K. Nguyen (@ohmaipie): booktrust.org.uk/book/a/anzu-an… @piccadillypress
