Hairy New Year!
It’s been a busy time here with various book things. I’ve just finished the artwork for Dave & Greta Make The World Better! which is out in June I think. Plus Ginny’s Big Adventure is out in hardback this month and paperback in July. I’m also art working my most ridiculous book yet which is out early 2023 and there has been some lovely co-edition news which I will update at some point. Watch this space!
Ed & Bunny are back!
Just started work on the third Moneyheroes.org Ed & Bunny Book! Ed & Bunny Raise Some Money! It should be out later this year so I’d better get on with it!
Back out there!
After lord knows how long I did a book event thing yesterday. The ‘new look’ hairy me dug out my hoodie (needs an iron!) and visited Grovelands School in Hailsham and read Superbat and generally made an idiot of myself. The usual thing, really. Hopefully the kids had a good time!
Doris goes Global!
Some great news involving Doris The Doctorpus this week as NOW WASH YOUR HANDS! is getting translated into French-Canadian! (Which I imagine is pretty much French) Last week the Thai version went to print and the book is also in Korean and Turkish and is also in Australian, New Zealandish and American (Not much translating there!) Hilariously, there are 77,000 Doris’s in the USA but because of a little error none have my name on!
Shop now open!
After what seems like years I’ve finally got my shop up. It’s selling greeting cards, stickers and badges at the moment but hopefully there will be more stuff soon. Got to Shop link at top of page to have a look!
Doctorpus Doris gets on the news!
Great to see Doctorpus Doris live on Channel 4 news the other day when she was featured very quickly in the brilliant Chicken & Frog bookshop as part of a feature about the re-opening of shops. You can watch it here.
Ed & Bunny are here!
The brand new Ed & Bunny FREE Ebooks are out. They are for the charity moneyheroes.org.uk to help young kids learn about money.
