One of my favourite pictures from the Great Auks Great Escape (by me) illustrated by Joceline Hildrey. Makes me wonder what the great auk (now extinct) is saying to its little puffin cousins.

We're planning a Dragon Hunt, but we don't know where to go! I'd love suggestions for dragon-themed UK destinations we could visit with our Rory and the Snack Dragons books. Thank you! (pic by Giulia Cregut from Rory and the Snack Dragons)

Huge congratulations to all these wonderful Scottish bookshops. What a difficult choice to pick just one as Scotland’s Independent Bookshop of the Year. Well done The Ginger Cat Bookshop, The Book Nook Stewarton Seahorse Bookstore UllapoolBookshop and all! #britishbookawards #Nibbles

Ultimately, dont forget about us. Next time you want to order a book online, consider buying it from an indie bookshop (it won't just be us having this problem!) And when you do, share that with other people. Reviews, posts, pictures. It all helps!

It's a great month for Scottish #kidlit, especially about the great outdoors and the wild (and not so wild) creatures within it. Here are my spring reading picks, ft stories by Catherine Ward, Barbara Henderson & Alan Dapre (Little Door Books). louisamacdougall.co.uk/reviews

April 15th is the 113th anniversary of the #Titanic disaster. All the characters in The Titanic Detective Agency were real-life passengers or crew on the doomed ship. The only snag with writing about real people was that I couldn't give them all a happy ending.
