NEW BOOK! Natalie and Alphonse’s fourth adventure, ALPHONSE, YOU’RE RUINING THE SHOW! is available now – published by Walker Books in the UK and Candlewick Press in the US.

Following on from ALPHONSE, THAT IS NOT OK TO DO! I DO NOT LIKE BOOKS ANYMORE! and ALPHONSE, THERE’S MUD ON THE CEILING! this is the story of what happens when Natalie and Alphonse have a sleepover (Alphonse’s first!) at Granny’s house and decide to put on a play.

The book was inspired partly by Alphonse’s fairy costume in I DO NOT LIKE BOOKS ANYMORE! and partly by the plays my brother and I used to put on with our cousins at Halloween.

I’m sharing more about the book and the process behind it over on Instagram. You can buy ALPHONSE, YOU’RE RUINING THE SHOW! now, read reviews from The Guardian, Kirkus, or School Library Journal or check my Events page if you’d like to say hello and get a signed copy – hope to see you soon!
