On Monday our instagram account was hacked and then deleted. We received a ransom note to recover it; obviously we couldn't and wouldn't pay, and therefore lost thousands of followers. Meta support was useless. But we're BACK with a new account: @littletollerbooks. Can you follow us there and share?

My latest project was delivered today with the official launch of our first ever children’s story book at the #museum. Is that Doris? is based on the Pliosaurus carpenteri fossil in the collections AND there’s a cuddly pliosaur too. Being a #MuseumEducator is never dull!
Shop display unit with copies of a children’s picture book called Is that Doris? arranged vertically and horizontally.

You know you’ve been a #MuseumEducator for too long when the highlight of your day is finding someone to make replica Iron Age axe heads…
