Lots of KEGS students love the Dread Wood books - and Crater Lake too!
I would love to see photos of my book in the wild, if anyone spots it and is willing to share. 🥰

It’s double publication week! Here is my dream-come-true World Book Day book: Creepy Creations. Such an honour to be part of WBD, and I would never say no to the opportunity to write more Dread Wood stories! Modelled by Mabel because I look like a snot monster with an eye patch.

I had no money growing up. My dad was a labourer and my mum did everything to make ends meet. Men worked hard. Women worked miracles. But education was free. As was the local library. I knew books were my passport to a better life. Happy #WorldBookDay

We are deeply saddened to learn that her Majesty the Queen, Elizabeth II has passed away. We would like to thank her for her long service to this country and send our deepest condolences to the Royal Family. What a very fitting tribute.
Tonight feels like we’ve all come to the end of that book that was always on our bedside table. We all read the chapters, some were good, some sad, some full of drama, some surprising. We all loved that book and although we’re sad the book has ended, it was the end we hoped for.
