Thank you so much for this post. (Although you don't know how long I spent panicking about the Vigenere cipher bits, I was convinced I'd got it wrong...)

So excited that this book - the first in a new series! - is published this year! It's a mystery set at MI5 during the First World War, with a cast of girl characters that I love so much.

So proud of them all. (Their signs are fab.) I gather some folks are bringing binliners for a post-protest litter-pick - the most Girlguiding thing ever.

The Woodland Badger by @hollywebb.bsky.social is another gentle yet inspiring animal story that will encourage children to use their voice to protect wildlife. Perfect for Year 2+, it's definitely one for classroom libraries.

My husband has taught human reproduction and development to the Cambridge medics for over three decades. When people start banging on about "only two biological sexes" he starts with "which sex: genetic, hormonal, or gonadal"?
Biological sex is not binary. www.scientificamerican.com/article/sex-...
You tell yourself that, darling.

Authors and illustrators (and both) of Bluesky! I've shared the petition about the lambeth library cuts, but they'd LOVE some more authors to sign this open letter. #KidLitUK docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

A shelf of archive boxes
Orkney Library & Archive is a library AND an archive but did you know about the miniature library that is stored IN the archive?
Read on to find out more about the incredible Minervian Library, created by a group of young children in #Orkney more than 160 years ago.
So glad to see this. Creatives should be paid for use of our work. I've filled in the government consultation - I really hope it makes a difference...
25.02.2025 22:54 — 👍 4 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0Seriously, creative folks: Don't be afraid to let people know your stuff is out there for them, or worry that "now is not the time for that." People are stressed and freaked out and looking for the things that will give them a moment of rest and joy. It is EXACTLY the time for what we do. Tell them.

Please boost this post, ESPECIALLY if you’re a UK based visual artist, author or creative.
