#MajorandMynah spotted on #BBCOne #SortYourLifeOut last night! A favourite book of a girl with deaf parents, it’s so heartwarming to see our books in the hands of readers who love them 📚♥️

This month, BookTrust and Scottish Book Trust are running a campaign called Read it Forward. All you have to do is buy through bookshop.org! How amazing is that? Since BAD UNITED 2 came out this month, why not treat yourself or your little ones and donate to this amazing initiative too!

That's very kind of you to say! Hope you enjoy book 2 😊

Thanks Paula!

Thanks lovely!

I received an advance copy of of this and absolutely love it - it’s such a great series! Whilst the books are fantastic for any readers, children who enjoy sports are massively undercatered to in the graphic novel space, and this is perfect for them. Go pick it up now!

Ah Mark! You're a superstar! Thank you so much for sharing. Really glad to hear that you enjoyed book 2 in the series. Hope all is well with you x

Happy publication day to #KarenOwen and @munkeypants.bsky.social!! 🐧📕

This time, Callie, Grace and Bo are on holiday to Wales, but they soon realise their new puffin friends are in danger…

Bad United: Foul Play is out today!
The second book in my graphic novel series is packed full of fairies, magic and mayhem. Oh, and football!

Heeey!

Hey Jacqui! Finally trying this thing out.

Is this thing on?

Second review for Grim Falls Academy. It feels really surreal to know that people (besides the publisher and myself) are reading my silly little books.

Blog Tour: Grim Falls Academy: Don’t Eat the Soup!; Don’t Feed the Glob! and Don’t Open the Bo... Cover illustrations by Louise Forshaw Today, I am thrilled to open the blog tour for this fantastic new series for young readers from author-illustrator Louise Forshaw. When my now adult children were...

The first review for my debut series is in! Such a lovely review, I'm super chuffed.

I wanna know too!

I might have joined Tumblr. I need my thoughts about whatever show I'm currently obsessed with to be out there in the world.

All shops should get on TK Maxx's level for Halloween stuff. It's never too early!

Thanks Laura! Yes, I wanted to make sure they were the focus throughout the books. Making sure they don't get lost in any detailed backgrounds. Backgrounds are the bane of my life!

More art! This is one of my favourite illustrations from Grim Falls Academy: Don't Feed the Glob. Though it took me forever (Victor's coffin especially).

Thanks Louie!
