Itโ€™s been one week since We Want Our Books came out! ๐Ÿ’ซ Iโ€™ve been feeling a nice mixture of relief, pride and abject terror. Which is what most people must feel when they put something out into the world for the first time. THREAD ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿฝ

'A world without libraries will have deep lasting ramifications within our society - and it will become a reality if we don't fight for them.' We love this piece from We Want Our Books author Jake Alexander about why we need to protect our libraries: booktrust.org.uk/news-and-featuโ€ฆ

We're excited to share another profile of one of the inspiring activists depicted in #Suffragette by #DavidRoberts - a real passion project, which all began when David did a school project on the suffragettes age 14!

Dear ZARA please could there be an option where you can view a size 14 person in their 30s wearing the dress because there is genuinely no point in me seeing how it looks on a seven foot tall ethereal 18 year old goddess dancing in a wind tunnel. Thank you.

From #Suffragette by #DavidRoberts we have a portrait of Fusae Ichikawa, a Japanese teacher, journalist and politician who was a devoted advocate for women's political rights. Women in Japan achieved voting equality with men in 1945. ow.ly/D2ek30jzjVb
