To mark #InternationalWomensDay, 10% of all book sales 8-9 March go to the Women's Prize Trust, supporting their work as a UK charity to improve access to and appreciation of women’s writing for all readers, and discover the experts, thought-leaders, and changemakers of tomorrow. bit.ly/wptrust2025

Girl looking epic in her World Book Day costume of blue ‘Victorian’ style dress & chunky black boots in style of ‘Peggy’ character from ‘The Whisperling’ book

A potato dressed in blue felt dress with wooden hair and drawn-on facial features to resemble the character of Peggy from ‘The Whisperling’ book

Someone dressed up as Peggy, a character from MY ACTUAL BOOK for #WorldBookDay 😍

Two days later still shaken by production of #ghoststories at @everymanchelt.bsky.social though not as shaken as the woman next to me who threw her wine over herself at the first jump scare haha

An illustration of an open book, with waves on its pages and a child sailing in a paper hat looking through a telescope as a dolphin jumps out of the water, all surrounded by stars. Plus the logos for Bookshop.org, BookTrust and Scottish Book Trust and the words: "Read It Forward - 10% of all children's book sales go to BookTrust and Scottish Book Trust in February 2025"

This is your LAST CHANCE to join #ReadItForward on @bookshop-org-uk.bsky.social!

Order any children's or YA book by midnight on 28 February and 10% of the sale will go to us or our pals at @scottishbooktrust.bsky.social.

Libraries & librarians have never been more important. If we care about the future, we must make sure every school, every community, every child has access to a library & a librarian. And we have to give them all our support, so they can do their vital work, which benefits us ALL! #SaveLibraries

Excellent work, thank you!! 🤩

It feels like the old days on the ‘other one’, Hannah 😂

Hey #kidlit crew - how you doing? This feels weird but nice (thanks for the invite @missdeplume.bsky.social 🤍)
