The Big-Time Boogie-Woogie Animal Band is published today! Love for animals and music seems so fundamental to little (and not so little) people, so I wanted to write a rhythm and rhyme-filled celebration that brought these 2 passions together. The wonderful Nick East has absolutely smashed it with his exuberant and joyful illustrations. I hope you like it! @hachettekids #earlyyears #teachersofinstagram #picturebooks @nick.easty

These roses along the path to my studio feel like a miracle every year. They are so delicate but the look and smell is utterly sublime 😊

Did you know that @guyparkerrees and I have done 5 other animal stories to accompany GIRAFFES CAN’T DANCE? Do you have them all? Which of the others is your favourite…? We’d love to know 😊🙏🏼 . @thepicturebookpost #earlyyears #teachersofinstagram #nurseryteacher @hachettekids #picturebooks @scholastic

THANK YOU for all the love you’ve given this book. Today marks 25 years since publication - and the launch of a brand new sparkly gold cover to celebrate! I remember so well sitting down to write it after the first time I’d ever seen giraffes in the wild. I was just so moved by their grace and elegance. “We ALL can dance,” I thought, “when we find music that we love.” . @thepicturebookpost #earlyyears #teachersofinstagram #nurseryteacher @hachettekids #picturebooks #growthmindset @scholastic @guyparkerrees #giraffescantdance
