THE HISTORY OF INFORMATION by @chrishaughton.bsky.social is top tier children’s nonfiction - stunning, insightful, and thought-provoking. A must for every classroom and library and in this age of disinformation, it’s the most important book you’ll read this year. #KidlitUK #KidBooksUK

Wonderful artist, Faye Bridgwater and old chum of mine has now joined us all! 😃🥳

My cat, Trusty, unfortunately caught a mouse earlier, and has spent the morning choreographing and rehearsing a mouse-catching ballet for the dog to watch.
