A massive THANK YOU to Sara @Cee__Car and everyone at RISE @riseframework for once again sponsoring the cost of this year's website for @BBCCiN
Massive advocates of @ChildrenInRead Sara & RISE have sponsored The Authors' & Illustrators' Auction for the past 10 years.
When the world seems a bit too loud and fast and full, I think it helps to remember that places like Milldale still exist, where the cottages huddle together in the hills, where the River Dove sparkles at the end of the lane, and where there are often more ducks than people. #peakdistrict

‘Excuse me, sorry, what now?!!!!!’ were the exact words I said aloud to myself when I first got this news! I am beyond grateful, honoured & mind-blown that Wolf Siren has been nominated for the 2026 Carnegie Medal for Writing!!!
Thank you so much @CarnegieMedals!

This evening this petition stands at 93400, let’s smash it through the 100k target and get another parliamentary debate on #fireworks
The petition asks to reduce the maximum noise level for #consumer fireworks from 120 to 90 decibels
We think each year, individuals suffer because of loud fireworks. We believe horses, dogs, cats, livestock and wildlife can be terrified by noisy fireworks and many people find them intolerable.
There’s more to talk about than just decibel levels given the horrendous behaviour we’ve seen so far this autumn, but it’s a start.
