@redbreastedbird @PuffinBooks Hooray! More of your wonderful ideas on paper for everyone to read! Can't wait for these to be out in the world!

@MrHAClarke I've had numerous cat gifts as end of year gifts... even though my cats are not at school, I share so many stories that I think the children feel like the cats are part of the class. 🐱

@redbreastedbird Your books are a hit in my library! I just wish I had more. I have a LONG waiting list!! The children keep asked for them 😍

[Ruth Trollip @ruth_trollip]

@stewfoster1 I'm glad you found out why you enjoyed writing!

[Ruth Trollip @ruth_trollip]

@OwletPress @BookSuperhero2 Is it possible to review if I'm in South Africa? I'm a school librarian...

[Ruth Trollip @ruth_trollip]

@redbreastedbird How incredibly special! Love the title 😍

[Ruth Trollip @ruth_trollip]

@skinnerwrites @BookSuperhero2 I wish this was available I'm South Africa!

[Ruth Trollip @ruth_trollip]

@Struan_Murray @BookSuperhero2 I wish this was available in South Africa!

@laurenstjohn I've sadly left Cape Town... now in little old East London in the Eastern Cape... but as long as I have books I'm happy wherever I am!

[Ruth Trollip @ruth_trollip]

@redbreastedbird your books are gorgeous and will now be finding a space on my library shelves at my school! I cannot wait to introduce the children to this wonderful series! Here's to hoping to for more copies and many readers!

[Ruth Trollip @ruth_trollip]

@laurenstjohn my heart is so happy to finally have some of your beauties being added to my library at school! Here's to many happy readers... one young lady is hooked and keeps appearing at my checkout desk asking for more of your books!

Teaching is an endurance sport.

It’s why breaks are needed!

@AnneLouiseAvery What a delightful competition... I'm guessing it's not open for an entrant from South Africa?

[Anne Louise Avery @AnneLouiseAvery]

🦊🌿Competition time! To cheer up a gloomy January, I'm giving away a signed edition of my brand new "A Fox for All Seasons", complete with map endpapers & ribbon, a further copy of my Reynard the Fox, & a charming fox companion! Simply like, retweet & follow to enter! 🌿🦊

@gill__lewis @LibraryCarronG @Falkirk_LRS @CarrongrangeSch @ShelleyProcek @GHSLibrGHSLibr I love this idea 💡 ♥️

[Ruth Trollip @ruth_trollip]

@LibraryCarronG @CarrongrangeSch @Falkirk_LRS @ShelleyProcek @GHSLibrGHSLibr I'm going to be a librarian from April onwards and would love to have a library dog or cat... it's something I dream about all the time.

[Ruth Trollip @ruth_trollip]

@BexBookaholic I think this is a lovely idea! Wouldn't say it's creepy....I love looking in second hand books to see if there are inscriptions left by previous owners. If it's pencil, it can be erased. But I certainly wouldn't erase it. 😊

[Fixing Education @FixingEducation]

According to a recent survey, 48% of teachers admitted that they had considered quitting within the last 30 days. Of that number, 34% said they were thinking about leaving the profession entirely.

Where does this leave America?
