NEW BOOK! My latest picture book, THERE IS NOT USUALLY A HOLE, is available to pre-order in the UK now! If you’d like a signed copy, and to support a wonderful local children’s bookshop, why not pre-order from Pickled Pepper? The UK edition is published on February 12th by Walker Books; in America it’s already out from Candlewick so you can get a copy right away.

THERE IS NOT USUALLY A HOLE is the story of a small red cat called Betsy, her crocodile friend Philippa and the MYSTERIOUS HOLE they discover while out for a walk. The book contains danger, snacks, a ballpit, worm pirates, new friends and an unwanted sandwich.

I’ll be at Pickled Pepper on Saturday February 7th for a children’s event with storytime, crafting and book-signing – please book a space here if you’d like to come along!
