Thanks again to @VogueWilliams for recommending Gringer on @Channel4’s “Keep reading and carry on” ( Episode 3) with Richard and Judy. Sheena’s other book “ Yoga Babies” by @Fearnecotton also featured, very exciting altogether!
BTW for back story and online stockists, see gringerthewhinger.com.
Storytime with Vogue Williams youtu.be/pLCS6RMaFJU via @YouTube Thank you @VogueWilliams for choosing to read the story of Gringer to little Theodore! @SheenaDempsey and I are delighted!

Hooray for #IrishBookWeek and an expedition to @WoodbineBooks where I met owner Dawn, and Teresa and Pat Quinn from @liffeysoundfm. A gorgeous shop with delicious coffee!
Wizards of Words is an amazing literacy scheme run by @Barnardos_IRL and Better Finglas. Proud children from St Brigid’s and St Fergal’s primary schools got their certificates of completion this week and Jane came to congratulate them and present each with a copy of Gringer!
Gringer was at Towers and Tales children’s book festival in lovely Lismore Castle @LCA_Gallery ! Younger visitors got to ‘Knock for a story’ at this blue door. It leads to a tiny dark room in a tower where Paula Paul of @WaterfordLibs and I took turns at reading stories. 📚🚪
