Massive, massive thanks to British Library, the PLR scheme is fantastic. I am in AWE of libraries and their staff - librarians are unsung heroes!


What my kids see when I’m in yeti mode! I’ve been recording some yeti moves ahead of tomorrow’s virtual event with ReadingRocks - I hope some of you can come and join the fun! #authorlife

What a fantastic event - thank you to all the classes who joined Loretta Schauer, Iggy and me! We were hugely impressed by your spotting skills, yeti moves and yeti drawings! And such insightful questions, too!

The best way to spend a morning has to be watching Kate Thompson / KR Thompson and Loretta Schauer talk about #YetisDontExist with ReadingRocks 📚 I've also FINALLY drawn my very own Yeti, with the perfect name... if I do say so myself ❄️





Heads up we have eight winning book covers in the FIinal! Get ready! Philippa Leathley Sally Doherty writes 👩💻 Sarah Harrison alexandradawe antonia maxwell ⚡️⚡️⚡️ Kate Thompson / KR Thompson Kevin Moran - The Doomsday Club out now! Steve Cahill

I am beyond excited for Oxford Blood! Huge congratulations Rachael Davis (she/her)!


So excited to reveal the cover for I’M GONNA EAT A MONSTER! Written by me, illustrated by Scott Wilson, and publishing with PuffinBooks. We’re super excited for you to meet Little Rabbit and Grey Wolf and follow them on their adventure on March 6th! Pre-order link in my bio!


What an honour to discover that BookTrust has chosen Yetis Don’t Exist by me and Loretta Schauer as their #BookOfTheDay! Thank you! There’s always magic to be found if we choose to believe! Templar Books

Hooray! Tune into milkshake tv at 9am on World Book Day for a yeti-tastic storytime!

Huge congratulations Kael Tudor and Scott Wilson! I’m gonna get home later to a copy of I’m Gonna Eat A Monster!

What a FURtastic virtual visit to Thongsley Fields Primary today! We talked about my inspiration for writing Yetis Don’t Exist, stamped & stomped along with the yetis’ story, learned yetis moves & drew our own furry Loretta Schauer-style yetis. Thank you for inviting me! #worldbookday


So lovely to catch up with Jo Williamson this morning for a VERY exciting meeting. I always have to pinch myself that I get to work with such brilliant publishing teams. More details soon, but there’s the teeniest of clues in one of the photos for any detectives out there!
