✨ New 5-star review on Barnes & Noble! “Not one of those mass-produced formulaic paperbacks… it's a book a child or adult will feel satisfied delving into.” Feeling grateful for this lovely write-up of Ivy Newt and the Storm Witch 💫📚 #IvyNewt #chapterbooks #BarnesAndNoble

This is a bit annoying, as I have some really strong IP in the form of popular middle-grade children's books- Will Gallows, Ivy Newt- that I know would make great movies for kids and parents alike. #movie #kidsbooks
Oh dear @ITV putting Protection on after the brilliant @daraghcarville 's The Bay just highlights its mediocrity even more😯
