I’m going to Bologna!
We really are going to the Bologna Children’s Book Fair—the biggest event in the children’s publishing calendar. We have tickets. We’re all booked. We practically have accommodation. I am very excited and hoping to meet my Taiwanese, Thai, French and German publishers. I’m also looking forward to eating lots of amazing Bolognese food. Can’t wait!

It is. From the minute I heard about the Bologna fair I’ve been scheming to get there and then the society of children’s book illustrators and writers invited us to give a workshop just before the fair. Cool, eh?
Thanks so much for the good wishes!
