✨ Three schools, lots of brilliant questions, stacks of signed books, and one very magical day with Fiona Dixon ✨

On Wednesday, we spent the day with Fiona Dixon, author of Crow: Thief of Magic, travelling around some of our local schools, meeting enthusiastic young readers, chatting all things creative writing and storytelling and hearing some fantastic ideas from pupils along the way 🪄

A huge thank you to all of the schools, teachers and students who made Fiona feel so welcome! 💫

If we didn’t make it to your school this time, don’t worry- you can still order a signed copy of Crow: Thief of Magic for collection or free local delivery via our website, and dive into this magical adventure yourself! ✨

We’re back with a brand new lineup of events this spring/summer! Don’t miss our first guest author, Gina Rippon as she discusses her groundbreaking book ‘The Lost Girls of Autism’, an eye-opening exploration of how autism in girls and women has been overlooked for too long.

Gina’s talk will shine a light on the experiences of autistic women and challenge the outdated stereotypes that have shaped diagnosis and understanding for decades.

This promises to be an insightful, thought-provoking event for readers, educators, parents, clinicians and anyone interested in neurodiversity. Ask Gina your questions and get your book signed by the author herself!
