Such a fun evening celebrating the launch of #CloudNine, the new YA #romcom by the talented @suehcunningham.bsky.social out now! #Scholastic 🎉 Gorgeous venue in indie bookshop #HouseOfBooksAndFriends 📚💓

Two great dystopian reads that aren’t hopelessly bleak. The Blue Book of Nebo is a stunning YA book that is heartbreaking in places. How I saved the world in a week is a great middle grade book about survival and tricky family dynamics. #booksky

First there was a mind-reading sausage dog, and then there were... shapeshifting snails! Look out for SNAILS OF THE UNEXPECTED in April - written by me, illustrated by Brenda Figueroa, with cover design by @beckamoor.bsky.social 🐌⚡🐌⚡🐌 #kidlit #childrensbooks @fireflypress.bsky.social

Join us for Episode 19 where we have an interview with @lucyannunwin.bsky.social and talk about her new book How to be a Revolutionary.  We also discuss our New Year’s reading resolutions and do some book reviews of our holiday reading @uclanpublishing.bsky.social #kidlitUK #RfP

I don't believe in "good reading" & "bad reading". Comic books, graphic novels, manga, picture books, joke books, sports reports, all kinds of poetry & prose: it's all reading, and it's all good! Let kids read for pleasure - and they'll be readers FOREVER! #reading #literacy (Art: Bill Watterson)

If you have any interest in children's books, the #ReflectingRealities research done by @theclpe.bsky.social is absolutely essential reading. Look out for the new report tomorrow - and here's all their research so far: clpe.org.uk/research/ref...
