Somewhere, inside a skull near you ... 🧠   The No-Brainer Brain Explainer is coming in June! Here’s a sneak peek into one of the opening spreads from the brilliant @crabmuseum and @brunice 📖   Discover the biggest, smallest, toughest, brainiest brains in the animal kingdom. Did you know that woodpeckers have especially tough brains to allow them to bash it against a tree twenty times a second? And that cockroaches brains are spread all throughout their body? 🪳😯   You’ll learn all about what brains are made of, how they help us time travel, the limits of brains – like confusion and phobias – and of course, all about the smartest brain of all, according to itself: yours! 🧠   The No-Brainer Brain Explainer is out in June! 📖   @wideeyededitions #crabmuseum #childrensbooks #booksaboutbrains #factbooks #nonfiction

⚓️WHAT. A. WEEK! ⚓️ 🌊Not included: photos of me sleeping at a spa last Saturday (I was SO tired!), the sound of my enormous case as I wheeled it though Penzance and London (people kept turning to see what the racket was), me walking from Bankside to Foyles because the thought of getting on a bus with the massive noisy case was too much 😅, Michael Rosen’s birthday event (he gets his own post, obvs), the sleeper train that equalled ZERO sleep, the editors, designer and sensitivity readers who all helped get this book to publication, and the majority of the people who made the week what it was. 🌊Now I’m gearing up for another event on Sunday, before we head back to the mainland for half term, with events at @alligatorsmouth , @papercatbooks and @the_globe . 🌊Thank you all for your support so far 💛

COVER REVEAL 🐿️ Join in with imaginary play through the eyes of a little boy who believes he IS a squirrel! 😮 The younger brother likes doing everything a squirrel does—running, jumping, collecting nuts, having squirrel friends and playing with his family. But his older brother refuses to join in with his play—he thinks it’s too silly. But eventually, after much squabbling between the two, the older brother can’t resist joining in! 😉 Publishing this September, I am a Squirrel is a hilarious escapade about two brothers and their up-and-down relationship, from the clever mind of @scottrothmanwriter and featuring lovable characters from @tom_tinndisbury . 🌰🐿️ PRE-ORDER NOW! https://ow.ly/RoRq50YRl1T #squirrel #kidsbooks #childrensbooks #scottrothman #tomtinndisbury #newbook #preorder #imaginaryplay
