Thank you so much for these comments - whilst I want adult readers to like the book, I really really want young readers to enjoy it 🥰

I wish I could share his facial expressions as we read this book as the look of excitement and amazement on his wee face is hard to put into words!

I’m so looking forward to this after a fabulous time in Tooting. Come along and join in and I should be joined by Sam the illustrator too 😊
Did you miss the wonderful Kate Cunningham at Tooting children's library last week? Well, you can catch her and her creation Vlad the flea at Battersea Library at 4pm for a special storytime - part of the Wandsworth Heritage Festival!

Busy sewing- all my sewing skills and a lot of my equipment came from my Grandmother. Her day job was being a doctor … stitches anyone?

7 years ago we published Vlad and the Great Fire of London and it is still our best selling book.
Sam was 17 years old when he illustrated it, and since then he has worked incredibly hard getting an Illustration Degree and he has now recreated the illustrations from our 1st book

It was a lot of fun and so many fantastic questions. Thank you for inviting me into your classroom - I had a great time 😊
This afternoon we were extremely lucky to have a virtual visit from the author Kate Cunningham! During the session we enjoyed meeting the characters, Boxton and Vlad and we also asked Kate questions about being an author. She has inspired us to become authors! @reading_riddle
It was a great day - thank you to everyone for making me so welcome 😊
We are super excited to have @reading_riddle with us today for a series of writing workshops! 📚🌟 #ReadingRiddle #LboroAmherst

As 2020 started I was visiting 2 school a week (I could have have done more but needed time to do writing, so limited it). It was an absolute privilege. I met teachers in in big city schools and small country schools. They were all amazing. Whatever their setting, 1/

I love this! Great work @CattonGrove 🐀❤️🔥
Also, I am now completely obsessed with the idea of Roxy and Boxy scampering around Stuart London - what a fabulous idea.
Thank you for sharing.
After loving Vlad and the Great Fire of London, Year 2 were visited by Boxton who needed our help to send a letter to his fictional wife, Roxy. We are so proud of their efforts to convey what Boxton saw, his emotions and what to do next. Thanks for the inspiration @reading_riddle

I know there are book giveaways and schools who are contacting me here at the moment, as none of us expected the changes in the twitterverse.
If you need to find me elsewhere I am other social media as Reading Riddle and you can find me via readingriddle.co.uk
Take care 😉
Do you want to tell your children about different people who we remember? Vlad flea sees the fishermen, medics, soldiers, spies, ground-breaking airmen, people drawn in from across the continents. Read the story and get the free resources #WW1 #remembrance readingriddle.co.uk/teaching…
