Absolutely thrilled that Call Me Lion has been picked for the Summer Reading Challenge 2024 list. The theme is Marvellous Makers!

Strangely I've only been asked to do one event all summer but luckily it's in my local library here in Harpenden. It's this Friday (16 August) from 3-4pm for 7-11 year olds and it's totally FREE. I think there are a couple of tickets left if you're keen. You need to go onto the Harpenden Library website to book.

It was a lot of fun to see the poster up in the library window, so I took a photo to celebrate. You can see the ghostly shadow of my husband's hand pointing me out. Looks a bit like a rabbit!

Do sign up for the SRC by popping into your local library. It's not too late and a really fun thing to do all for FREE!

It was an absolute pleasure to do a full day visit at Rivermead School in Reading just before the start of the summer holidays. 

I dusted off the Box of Wonders, did some CML based poetry with the Y6, did a quick empathy assembly and had a queue out the door for the book signing at the end of the day. Magical visit
