Job done! Thank you Northumberland ❤️ Four days, six schools, lots of wonderful children and staff, many poetry memories and lots of books into children's hands. What a week. Loved it.

The only thing to do on #PublicationDay for a Christmas book, is to visit Father Christmas! A Welly Full of Christmas is out today and is Santa-approved! I hope you enjoy it - I had a lot of fun writing it ❤️🎄🎅🏼 #ChristmasPoems #UkKidLit #KidLitUk

Poems at bedtime tonight for Little Lime. We 'performed' Too Many Cats together and he got the hiccups from laughing so much - especially as our cat walked in, halfway through! @joshuaseigal.bsky.social @bloomsburybooksuk.bsky.social

One of my favourite illustrations from A Welly Full of Christmas. I'm lucky to have my friend Nadine Licence as illustrator - we met more than 20 years ago in a library, which is fitting. Our Christmassy book is out next week. Pre-orders open, or ask re. signed copies ❄️ @tinytreebooks.bsky.social

Lovely to post copies of Blue Jelly and Strawberries to teachers, today. I really appreciate every sale, especially in the summer holidays when I have no new income, 3 children to entertain & school shoes to buy 😂❤️🍓 Signed copies available from me & if you say please, I might give you a discount!

Congratulations to MrsP512 on X, who won my Blue Jelly and Strawberries book giveaway! 🎉🍓

Hello #ukkidlit #kidlituk pals 👋🏼. With my 2nd book just over 2 months away, I'd love some more reviews for Blue Jelly & Strawberries. It's nerve racking hoping The Next Book will do well, but hopefully, reading good reviews for The First Book might help to get it into readers' hands. Thank you! ❤️
