that's a lovely student .. and so happy you now have your own ghost and puddle !
After only three days of class, a student went to the National Book Festival, found the children's book author I said I was sad to miss (we couldn't go this year), and did this ... 😭😭🥰 #OneFrost @fcpsnews @OliverJeffers @samwinston_

An absolutely dream event tonight listening to @OliverJeffers and @samwinston_ talk to @DapsDraws about their beautiful new book THE DICTIONARY STORY and their previous work A CHILD OF BOOKS! a fascinating conversation but my main takeaway was that we need to say “acorn” more.

Kinds words Simon and yes a fair bit of love went into this tale
Wow ! This an utter stunner! “The Dictionary Story” by @OliverJeffers and @samwinston_ is a brilliantly funny and chaotic tour de force. It’s playful and wonderful. It’s full of brilliant hilarious detail, every page offers something new. Top drawer! #PicturebookPage
