Back from a weekend away to this #bookpost bonanza!
For starters...
Thank you @Usborne for #JennyPearson #ShrapnelBoys & @GMcCaughrean #UnderAFireRedSky
@barringtonstoke for @thelucystrange #TheBoyAtTheWindow @DanSmithAuthor #DeadsoulProject
& #chickenhousebooks for Gary Panton #TheNotwitches
Proof copies of both books. Shrapnel Boys has a blue foiled cover and features silhouettes of what I think are Spitfire planes and a quote from author Phil Earle: ‘Jenny Pearson puts her brand of brave, spirited kids in the middle of their very own war.’ Under a Fire-Red Sky has a red cover which shows searchlights being shone upwards towards aircraft which are flying over them. It bears the tagline: An unforgettable WWII story from two-time Carnegie-winning author’ (Geraldine McCaughrean).
A brace of brilliant #WWII stories today from 2 wonderful writers. Super-excited to read #ShrapnelBoys by Jenny Pearson and #UnderAFireRedSky by Geraldine McCaughrean. Out 08/05 and 10/04 for 9+ and 12+ readers respectively. The most enormous thanks go to @frithal #UsborneBooks 🥰
