Happy World Book Day, 2024!
Can’t believe a decade has passed since Hugless Douglas was one of the 2014 WBD titles. That’s a lot of Hugs under the bridge!
Thanks for the memories. Happy Reading everyone.

National Hug Day, 21st January
Missed this one yesterday, though of course, everyday is Hug Day…right?
Good luck to all first timers going to school this wk. I remember taking my two kids 18 years ago now! Time passes 😳 Creative tip: If you have kids share your story ideas. My kids helped with #HuglessDouglas by playing around with different types of hugs 💙

It's the story you know but with a snappy twist! Today's book for bedtime is Goldilocks and the three Crocodiles by @MichaelRosenYes, gloriously illustrated by @DavidMelling1.

Hugless Douglas is very excited about Rabbit's sleepover, but he collects so many friends along the way that soon it's a big squash in Rabbit's small burrow! How will they ever get to sleep? @DavidMelling1 #BookRecommendations #readingforpleasure thebookseekers.com/book/davi…
