Cindy Wume

Now that Summer is here and the flowers are in bloom it couldn’t be a more perfect time to publish Cindy’s gorgeous new book The Gardening Dog, published with Macmillan.

A beautiful story of growing a friendship and the benefits of community green space, we love the whimsy and movement in Cindy’s art and her quirky characters.

​Published simultaneously in the UK and in Cindy’s native Taiwan, with more co-editions to come, Cindy has been busy painting bookshop windows and exhibiting the art in Taiwan. Many congratulations to Cindy and the team at Macmillan on this blooming marvellous new picture book.

Jo Simmons

Congratulations to our author Jo Simmons whose second laugh-out-loud adventure, The Day the Hiccups Took Over, illustrated by Lee Cosgrove, published with Barrington Stoke this month.

​When Frank's hiccups just won't STOP, they get him into all kinds of trouble in this hilarious caper from comedy genius Jo Simmons. Perfect for Summer reading fun.
