Out tomorrow, Sin Bin Island by @dougrdnaylor.bsky.social is a brilliant magical middle grade adventure full of laughs and I cannot wait for Book2! @dfbstoryhouse.bsky.social #KidlitUK #UKKidlit worldssmallestlibrary.wordpress.com/2025/09/10/s...

I second this. Sin Bin Island is a straight-down-the-line adventure romp, mixed with a really clever time-bending narrative device. And, because it's written by @dougrdnaylor.bsky.social, lots of jokes. Highly recommended. #KidLit #KidLitUK
