Hello Nicola

Thank you for writing to me about a sequel for Monstersaurus. I’m so glad your son enjoys my book. I’m sorry to say that no sequel is forthcoming, though I’d love to write more adventures for Monty and Monstersaurus. I shall have to badger my publisher!

Thanks again for contacting me!

Love

Claire

WATCH OUT! THERE’S A MONSTER ABOUT!

Watch out for my new book Watch Out! There’s a Monster About! With great illustrations by Russell Julian, this is a hairy and slightly scary monster story.

Hello happy readers. I have two new books I’m excited to tell you about.

Teeny-Weeny Queenie is about a girl who wants to be Queen when she grows up. It’s great for girls as it’s pretty and pink and beautifully illustrated by the very talented Ali Pye.

The second book is called My Grandparents Love Me, beautifully illustrated by the very clever Judi Abbott.  It’s a lovely book to snuggle up and read with your grandparents or grandchildren. As the book says – there is love on every page.

I hope you enjoy these new books!

Bye for now

Claire

Two more new books to announce!

Beep, Beep, Beep, Time to Sleep is perfect for anyone who loves road building machines. A team of sleepy vehicles make their way home after a busy day on the building site. A fun bedtime story, beautifully illustrated by Richard Smythe. Sweet Dreams Big machines!

Astro the Robot Dog is an out of this world adventure. Join Astro the robot dog as he journeys through space and finds fun and friendship along the way. Brightly illustrated by the talented Russell Julian.

Aliens Love Dinopants is now out in paperback!

I am excited to announce that I have two new books out:

Monster Max’s Shark Spaghetti is the third in the Monster Max series, wonderfully illustrated by the super genius that is Sue Hendra and Paul Linnet. Thanks Sue and Paul for making Max look so funny!

Aliens Love Dinopants is the latest crazy underpants book. This time the pants-loving dinosaurs and aliens get together in a zany tale. Ben Cort has done a pantastic job of illustrating the book as ever!

Hope you enjoy these two new books. Let me know what you think. It’s always lovely to hear from you!

My latest book is called Oliver and Patch.
When Oliver finds a little lost dog called Patch, he makes his first friend in the big new city. The trouble is, he knows that someone, somehere will be missing him. It’s stunningly illustrated by the very talented Kate Hindley, in a beautiful palette of colours. Hope you enjoy reading it!

Hi Eli, I’ve enjoyed reading about your favourite books, and I’m so glad that Pirates Love Underpants is your fav picture book. I really like your castle drawing and I also LOVE snow and walking in crunchy snow. It’s great to hear you enjoy books of all sorts.

Happy reading!
Love

PS What a great bubble gum bubble you’ve blown in your photo – I always wanted to blow bubbles like that!!!

Thank you to all the schools that have contacted me recently to ask if I could come and visit you all. It’s wonderful to hear how excited you all are about reading. Unfortunately I have been overwhelmed with requests for Spring 2015 and, sadly,can no longer accept any more invitations at this moment. I need time to write some more books for all you lovely boys and girls to read!
Thank you everyone!

So excited to announce that SPIDER SANDWICHES by me and the wonderful illustrator that is Sue Hendra (and Paul Linnet) has been voted winner of the picture book category AND overall winner of the Sheffield Children’s Book Award 2014.
So excited as this award is judged by children only – hooray!!!
