I write about LOVE. I also write (poetry, fiction and non-fiction) for young people.

Porridge Please! by @lauramucha & #MarcBoutavant is a fun blend of favourite fairy tales. Bear just wants to read his book but everyone keeps knocking on his door! This will be a fantastic read aloud in EYFS & Y1.

in the book.

I cannot even begin to tell you how good this is. Wise, informed, moving... every parent, teacher, sendco and pastoral lead - in fact anyone who works or deals with people - would find it interesting and powerfully useful.
Massive props to @lauramucha and @BloomsburyBooks. 🥳 🎉
