10 years ago we set out to drive a big, irreversible change in the education system: enable every child to use their voice to thrive in school, work & life by ensuring oracy is given the same status as literacy & numeracy in schools across the UK.

Adored this wonderful little inter-generational story. “Last House in the Row” is a truly beautiful story of unlikely friendship. @lesleyparr.bsky.social has a delightful way with characters and Hayley and Boo (Lillian, my nan’s name) are no exception. Truly lovely. @barringtonstoke.bsky.social

Absolutely adored this prequel to “When the Sky Falls” “The Dawn of Adonis” by @philearle.bsky.social is a truly brilliant breathless run across London as Nettie and Toff flee with the baby Adonis from Goliath Deeds, one of the most terrifying villains I’ve come across in any children’s book. Fab!

Sorry, but I really hope people who love THE WILD ROBOT movie know it was inspired by my book. It's mentioned in the credits but most people don't read that stuff. If you love the movie you should check out the book! There's more to the story and it's a quick read.

No 7 in my #FavePicturebooks24 is… “The Last Zookeeper” by @storybreathing. The visual storytelling in this book is utterly extraordinary, it’s rich in pathos and emotion without a single word. A modern day Noah’s Ark. A Magical #WordlessWonder. #PicturebookPage
