We loved hearing author @tompalmerauthor speak on BBC Breakfast this morning! An inspiring interview about the role of children’s books in communicating difficult topics such as war and conflict. Gorgeous spread of WAR DOG illustrations from @CarolinaRabei too 😍

Thank you Christopher for an amazing and inspirational ESCAPE ROOM virtual visit with our schools this afternoon! 🔑 📕@ErnesettleSch @yfpsinfo @LairaGreenSch
Checking the @thebookseller Children's chart and if just 9,498 of you could pop into your favourite bookshop this week to pick up a copy of ESCAPE ROOM: GAME ZERO, I might have a chance of achieving my childhood dream of appearing on Top of the Pops AND Jackanory!
