On Tuesday I'm doing a Facebook Live session around reading and writing the Second World War. From my books D-Day Dog, Spitfire and After the War. I'll be taking questions, chatting and doing my first reading from After the War. Everyone welcome.

While we’re all cooped up, I’d say it’s time for a #Competition to keep the kids’ reading.

Like and RT for your chance to win signed copies of all three books in the Nothing To See Here Hotel series. It’s the perfect time before book four’s release in September.

Ends 10/05/2020

1/2 Lots of us are going to find ourselves at home with our children over the next few weeks/months looking for things to do, so I have decided to post some draw-along videos that you can watch together and, hopefully, make some nice pictures.

It's nearly #WorldBookDay! 😬😬😬

[Essex100Publications @EssexHundred]

@scottrossradio @phoenixfm This day Essex, March 3rd (1976). 1000 pupils walked out of lessons at St Peter's School in Burnham on Crouch due to 'unjustified uniform restrictions' and because pupils were caned by teacher 'without reason'. The school head blamed inflammatory reporting in the local press.

Of late I am being told by lots of people to keep washing hands to prevent any kind of infection. I do that in any case. But also want to suggest the age old Indian way of greeting people called #Namaste. It is hygienic, friendly & centres your energies. Try it. 🙏🙏 #caronavirus

[BookTrust @Booktrust]

It's #WorldWildlifeDay, and there are SO many good books to get your children interested in the natural world! We love this list of brilliant titles to try from @nicolakidsbooks: https://t.co/3xF0c3yzZh
