Princess and the Peas Launch Event

If you have never been to Tales on Moon Lane Bookshop in Herne Hill, GO RIGHT NOW!  It is THE most FABULOUS kids book shop in the world and the perfect place to run a launch event for The Princess and the Peas - my new book with Sarah Warburton, published by the amazing Nosy Crow.

The shop was packed with enthusiastic boys, girls, mums and dads and we had a great time reading the story and watching Sarah draw pictures of Lily Rose May, the star of the story.

We even got a picture of Lily on the Loo! Something that unfortunately did not appear in the book!  

Georgina Hanratty, the shop's manager, was the perfect hostess.  She made us all feel really welcome and even hung Pea-flavoured bunting from the chandeliers for us!

 After all the children had gone, we had some bubbly and snacks with some very important book bloggers, hosted by two very polite young ladies (Camilla from Nosy Crow's daughters).

Big thanks to Georgina and the team, to Kate Wilson, Dominic Kingston, Camilla Reid and her lovely daughters for making this event so special!
