Blown away by this beautifully written book by @HolSmale. I was so invested in Cassandra’s life. Love that autism was portrayed so honestly (those colour charts, banana muffins🥰) and with sensitivity, need to see the movie and need a sequel - please. Best book EVER!!!!!

@MrNickRansom @ChrisGPackham Amazing series, recommending to everyone. Would love to see more. You should be very proud.

[Chris Packham @ChrisGPackham]

We created this series to promote a wider understanding of what it's like to be autistic to a neurotypical audience , it's quite an emotional watch . It airs on the 14th Feb at 9pm on @BBCTwo and @BBCiPlayer .

I’m signing off for Christmas now, I’ll be back on Tuesday 27th, but before I go, how about a giveaway?

One lucky person who Retweets and Follows by midnight on 31st December will get to pick a shelf from my bookcase of the year and be sent all six books from it!

Merry Xmas!

@TheBookshopMan Have just started reading The perfect golden circle and it’s even better than I thought it would be, which is lucky as Hubble had problems getting a hold of a copy for me 🥰📚📚📚

[Sean McNamara @SeanJMcNamara1]

Why libraries are warm spaces & much more, the importance of them being open/funded and their role in a wellbeing economy.

Thanks to @heraldscotland for giving @CILIPScotland a chance to highlight this as part of the @scottishbktrust fundraising campaign https://t.co/SqwGI9Fsq9

[Kirkliston Library @KirklistonL]

Excited to announce our programme of events for December and to launch our Library as a Warm Welcoming Space. All welcome 🥰
