So on the last day of LGBTQ history month any schools who are looking to make their school a little bit more inclusive please order The Last Firefox. Every child deserves to see their family dynamic represented in school and in literature! 🏳️‍🌈 Please spread the word and RT 📚

Author visits in schools have a huge impact. Today, we were fortunate enough to have @leewhowrites visit us at @moorlandsbelton. He spoke with passion and humour about his journey as a writer and parent. Fifty kids walked out of the door at home time proudly clutching a new book.

Spot the author amongst the book stacks! A great start to the day with @leewhowrites as we learn all about #thelastfirefox today and get lots of books signed for happy pupils @moorlandsbelton

@owenjcornelius It’s generally hit and miss. We have about 7 in our town so by the time you’ve had a look in them all, you’ll find something ha

Love a good charity shop haul! Levi shirt £4, Nikes £6 and Cargos £3. I vouched to do 6 months without buying new clothes last year. I’ve never looked back, one man’s trash is another man’s treasure 🏴‍☠️

This Month's TOP 10 is thus! 1. The Last Firefox @leewhowrites 2. Daughters of Night @LauraSRobinson 3. Still Life #SarahWinman 4. Gallant @veschwab 5. A Terrible Kindness @JoBrowningWroe 6. Klara & the Sun @KazuoIshiguro6

“Lee Newbery's The Last Firefox is a groundbreaking work of children's fiction” yuuup that’s my husband! Super proud 🏳️‍🌈❤️

@MonopolyMan81 @leewhowrites Omg that’s amazing 😍🔥🦊

Could not put this down! Dark, unsettling yet hilarious!

Join us at 8pm GMT for #ukteenchat with the fabulous @leewhowrites, chatting all things #TheLastFirefox 🦊🔥 #kidlit #MG #ChildrensFiction #writerslife

We have lots of signed copies of The Last Firefox, come on down whilst stocks last! Our current bestselling children’s book and a favourite here at Bromley! Featuring a magical fox, a fierce beast and filled with lots of adventure and humour! ⁦⁦@leewhowrites⁩ ⁦

I’m a gay man with lots of gay friends, none of us feel erased by trans people. We all support trans rights! There is no LGBT community without the T. #JKDoesntSpeakForMe

Frankly wild that Rowling will send 'big love' to a prolific anti-LGBT campaigner who thinks queer folk live in sin, then turn around and glibly speak on behalf of my community. #JKDoesntSpeakForMe

An absolute must for your bookshelves, The Last Firefox was such a joy to read 🦊 A beautiful family, wonderful relationships, an ominous villain & an inspirational message of finding your inner fire. Loved this @leewhowrites @PuffinBooks 👏📚 checkemoutbooks.wordpress.com/2022/03/12/the…

Meet Charlie and Cadno in The Last Firefox by @leewhowrites; beautifully illustrated by Laura Catalàn. Charlie is worried about lots of things but when he has to look after the last ever Firefox, he starts to find his inner fire. A story of inclusion and friendship.

stop shaming people for reading kids’ books. adult books are about sad people having affairs while kids’ books have a magic tree house or a worm driving an apple. you tell me who’s winning

now this is cinema

Next #ukteenchat will be on Tues 15th March 8-9pm GMT with the fabulous @leewhowrites, chatting all about his debut #MG, #TheLastFirefox 🦊 All welcome to come and join in the chat 🙂 #kidlit #childrensfiction #writerslife #debuts22 #LeeNewbery #PuffinBooks

I’ve had a really upsetting few days. This week, I’ve been BANNED from talking about my YA books at a Catholic school. Full story here, but I urge you to read this thread too. I need your help, and more importantly, some LGBT kids do too… inews.co.uk/news/catholic-…

Little one had his first parents evening tonight. He’s confident, polite and rather busy. He will often do handstands in the middle of circle time 😅 Sounds like our little firecracker. Please don’t change 😅
