Year 3 Class EB3 have just finished the fantastic A Mummy Ate my Homework by Thiago de Moraes @tibolota they loved it and didn't want it to end. One question, though, from our very own He-Ne-Re, why did the mummy not actually eat his homework?

My new book is out May 9. It's an AI fable with nods to Alice, Pinocchio & Ada Lovelace among others. It's a little different, but true 'Hardy' if you like my other books! I'm super proud of it.
You can pre-order a signed/personalised copy hereποΈππ booknookuk.com/product/pre-oβ¦

Advance copies of North and the Only One are flying into the world! Eeeeeek!!!! I canβt wait to see what people think, although Iβm pretty nervous as itβs a little different (still very me but with added fairy tale and AI ;) Itβs out properly in May with @scholasticuk
Itβs a βreading in the gardenβ kind of an afternoon. And it has to be the new @vashti_hardy title: #NorthAndTheOnlyOne
Spotted in a bookshop in Seoul. The Best and the Bethany in Hangul.

Best thing to wake up to! Thanks so much for continuing to use Brightstorm in class - one of the lovely things about writing a series is you have books ready for eager young hands ππ @scholasticuk @NYRBooks #Brightstorm
We finished Brightstorm today, I have a list of 48 children wanting to borrow one of our 3 copies of Darkwhispers. Need to order some more. @vashti_hardy @_Reading_Rocks_

The German Health Minister gave an important update on the Covid situation yesterday.
Iβve written up the section of his speech from the video below for easy reading.
Itβs immensely refreshing to see a government minister warning of the harms of Covid in such a transparent way.

I hate doing this, but I am desperate for sales, as currently a few hundred pounds short of being able to cover my bills this month.
Please, if youβve ever thought about buying from me, now would be a great time. Even if all you can do is retweet this, Iβd be so grateful (1/2)

Turns out I hadnβt preordered Serpent of the Sands by @vashti_hardy! I have nowβ¦ with the lovely folk at @booknookhove and you can too if you get a wriggle on.
Iβm getting excited about the new @vashti_hardy which isnβt far off now. However, no idea if Iβve preordered already π. Any idea @booknookhove ???
I think I need a book calendar.
