There's always been competition for reading. When I was little it was playing out. But parents - help your children by chatting to them about books, reading to them, and reading yourselves!

Waterstones in Sheffield also have 'signed by the author' stickers, and Sheffield's @RhymeAndReas have double-signed copies.

[Tamsin Rosewell @autumnrosewell]

They have 'SIGNED BY THE ILLUSTRATOR' stickers!!

I went to explore the new @waterstones, Oxford Street, in the big John Lewis. Not only did they have The Seamaiden's Odyssey in stock, but they also have 'Signed by the Illustrator' stickers! I was extremely pleased to see them.

It was such an amzing day! Ooh, but cramp in hands!

[Tamsin Rosewell @autumnrosewell]

I had a brilliant day yesterday with @BerlieDoherty signing an ocean of The Seamaiden's Odyssey at GBS' warehouse. Our signing shed was decorated with flowers and fairy lights. It was unexpectedly magical!

Booksellers can order now double-signed stock through @bouncemarketing.

@Joannechocolat I absolutely love Honeycomb. It's so rich and imaginative, a wonderful interweaving of magical stories.

@mossmontmomery @WalkerBooksUK @WFHowes Woof! I'm told it's a lovely book!

[Ross Montgomery @mossmontmomery]

Happy bank holiday! And what better way to spend it than by listening to an audiobook?

I have 12 free copies of I AM REBEL on audiobook - in my benevolence, I've decided to give them away to the first 12 people who retweet this and then reply with the word "woof". Have at it!

@thelauratheory_ Hooray!

Poetry Laura! Good to see your words again.

August morning. Suburban blackbirds play in the soil, washing their jewelled wings. The neighbour's spaniel yaps in the garden. These are the familiar sounds of home, a testament to memory; and the Pennine hills are beautiful, out in the lonely distance.

⭐️🌊A LOVELY first review!🧜‍♂️🐚

'I loved this story so much that I almost don’t know where to begin!'

' Set against stunning blue backgrounds, silhouette work is used in the illustrations.... Each is a work of art to be lingered over and enjoyed.'

Thank you @Throughthebook2 😊
