Anyone else baffled by this move?

Can’t say I’m surprised. I wish our country would wean itself off the teat of American tech.

I don’t understand why authors aren’t livid.

The 2 board books. The first (on the right) shows the lower parts of a child’s legs with shoes on that look like triceratopses and the second the face of a stripy purple monster.

This summer, Châteraisé Hotel in Nirasaki #Japan hosted a Field Ballet open-air production of #Cinderella. To accompany the season, illustrations from my PB retelling (published in 1996) were chosen to adorn the rooms and locations in the hotel. A new audience for older work!

You’re the second person I’ve seen in less than 24 hours reading that - I hope you’re enjoying it! I’m reading #TheChristmasWishtastrophe by Cariad Lloyd, which is proving to be a great antidote to the horrible weather 😊 #UKKidlit #KidkitUK #AmReading
