HELLO and welcome to the very latest news from ALBERT the tortoise HQ and our good friends Hugg ‘n’ Bugg.
So. Much. Going. On….
You know how we love to hear from our friends in South Korea who publish our first two ALBERT picturebooks in Korean… We were thrilled this week when we received congratulations from them for our Nomination for a Carnegie Medal.
Closer to home, we were delighted to gift signed copies of ALBERT books to Cuffley Community Library in Hertfordshire. Earlier this year they used our books as prizes on their Open Day to help raise funds for the library. Similar plans are afoot…. Please do support Libraries if you can. Much needed local assets.
Even closer to home, we were back out one of our local Indie bookshops for Early Festive Storytime Fun… Book signing, storytelling, tortoises, yetis, dinosaurs and giveaways.. at Jo’s Bookshop in North Chingford. It was TINSEL-ating… Supersize Thanks to all who came along and to Jo and the bookselling Team for a super day. Signed books are in store… Just ask for personalised messages for Christmas and the Holidays…
There is more Festive fun coming .. on Saturdaay November 30 from 4pm we are super-thrilled to have been invited to be part of the Romford Waterstone’s Christmas Shopping Event in their store in the Liberty mall in Romford, Essex. Other authors will be there to sign books and to chat to customers… We’ll be there with tortoises, yetis, dinosaurs and giveaways… We hope to see some of you there. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to the store earlier this year for a Storytime.
As we said – lots going on.. and we have some giant news to share in a while… Sorry to tease, but we can’t share just yet. Thank you to everyone for all the support you show us. It is very much appreciated.
More news soon.. Til next time…
