With interest in reading plummeting, the most important thing right now is to focus squarely on our main aim for children - ensuring they can ALL connect with the books we publish. Clearly, from this report, this goal is far from accomplished. Let's stay focused and together keep pushing for change, championing underrepresented book creators.

Meet Joynina K Jones. She doesn’t know it yet, but she’s about to face school dramas, BFF fallouts, and the wrath of a very bossy cat, but she’ll also start a diary that might just change her life! I had a lot of fun writing and illustrating "The Secret Diary of Joynina K. Jones" for @BIgCatReadOn, and I’m so excited to introduce the main character - the very opinionated Joynina! Coming out on April 28th, and if you know someone who would love, it’s available for preorder now.

Children's books are not a luxury. Libraries & librarians are not a luxury. The teachers who inspire kids to read are not a luxury. If you cut or undermine or lose these things – #literacy will cease to be a basic human right, and will become a luxury, available only to a few.

@Janeannie @BigIssue Hey Jane, I loved 'Spare' by Prince Harry. Not your typical autobiography- Harry really shows his personality through the pages and his story of being a royal and giving it up for love and a new lease of life, is commendable.

A report has found that more than half of children's books published in the last decade with a minoritised ethnic main character were by white authors and illustrators.
