A tiny piece of writing, all about the love of books and reading ...from my son’s homework when he was six. #NationalWritingDay

Fun fact. When you reach 100 years old in Barbados, you get a stamp in your honor.

It's publication day! My butterfly book for children publishes today in the UK & Germany. Written in the hope it captures the imagination of kids, and inspires a lifelong interest and love for butterflies and the wider natural world. (1/2)

Current pet bugbear: people complaining about "the state of children's books now" who have no idea about the vast riches of contemporary children's literature.

Logic: You're drowning in books. Reader: I'm cultivating a sea of wisdom! 🌊

I know it’s Grinchy, but I just KEEP thinking of the difference it could make to authors, & UK publishing. if all the ££ spent on #WorldBookDay costumes went on new books instead, or if each school pooled together all that costume ££, & paid for an author or illustrator visit.

Happy World Book Day, everyone! Today is all about inspiring children to see reading differently, because reading for fun seriously improves lives. Thanks for joining the fun! #WorldBookDay
