Happy Release Day to Book 02 in the #SevenWherewithalWay series, Across the Ice and Into the Jungle. It takes inspiration from Norse and South American folklore and is packed with creatures, thrills, heart, mystery and adventure. I hope it goes on to have a wonderful journey.

This movie blew my mind when I watched it (I was probably a bit too young) and I was morbidly fascinated. I remember the visual design vividly. If it's strange and beautiful, I'm into it.
And @hm_waugh chats with #KidLitClassics about the book that got her into writing for kids: #ClockworkAngel by Cassandra Clare.

"You're only a children's bookshop."
To that we say, there is nothing "only" about children's books.
Books for children and young people are magic. They change lives. They give children something that is theirs.
Children's books are magic ❤️
