The book and its press release. The cover shows a boy with brown skin wearing a dark blue suit over a jade green hoodie, standing with his hands in his pockets. Behind him are three team members and a white grumpy-looking balding man with a moustache, wearing a green tracksuit and standing with his arms crossed.

A popular choice in these parts but I’d like to spotlight the wonderful Hari Kumar, who is ND, as well as Lizzie Chu who is bold and brave and comes to realise something important about her grandpa… (no spoilers!)

#KidsBooksFriday #UkKidLit #KidLitUK

Paperback cover of Hari Kumar, Ultimate Superstar by Rashmi Sirdeshpan, illustrated by Mamta Singh. Hari, a young ou wearing a blue tshirt, black jeans and converse-style shoes, is surrounded by doodles of musical notes, stars and his two friends, Lily and Raheem.Colourful paparrback cover of Keep Dancing, Lizzie Chu by Maisie Chan. Lizzie sits astride a giant glitter ball which reflects multiple colours in different directions. At the bottom of the cover are her two friends, a Black boy in jeans and smart green jacket/cardigan, plus an Asian girl in a wedding-style dress with bell sleeves and pink shoes. Caption: Keep trying, keep laughing, keep dancing!

A fun play on the Stevenson Jekyll and Hyde tales, nowhere near Edinburgh though there are enough Goths in Edinburgh to be called Gothville.

Fun and full of great illustrations

Got this feedback from my publicist from today’s school visit. Have now visited ten schools in four days, keeping 5-7 yr olds engaged for an hour at a stretch. Whatever crap life throws at me, I know deep down that I am truly excellent at my job. #EduSky #KidLitUK

It's publication day for A Scrap of Moss & Magick! Officially out in the world, with @dfbstoryhouse.bsky.social. It feels at once wildly thrilling & strangely distant.

(Alt Text for extended thanks! Links in bio!)

Good luck, little book, out in the world! Go well!

The book, the cover of which shows a terrified-looking blond boy in school uniform stepping through what looks like a swirling purple whirlwind, clutching a jewelled hand mirror in his left hand with a large ferris wheel and the Statue of Liberty behind him and a man in a black suit to the right of the picture glaring at him.
