I’m back from two wonderful days performing for young readers as part of the brilliant Bounce Into Books festival!
I visited two schools in Beverley and enjoyed an anarchic afternoon at a Sheffield library (where my event was held up for a few minutes by the arrival of a Chinese dragon – not every day I get to say that!)
But, best of all, I was at the festival to talk about Zombie! – my first book for specialist publisher, Barrington Stoke. I’m a big fan of the work they do, and I’ve now been lucky enough to write three novels for them – the aforementioned Zombie!, The Uniform (to be published in July) and Wolf (due out in 2011).
If you haven’t yet read a Barrington Stoke book – treat yourself to one soon and see for yourself just what exciting and valuable work they’re doing.
