The Way to Write for Children: An Introduction to the Craft of Writing Children's Literature
Joan Aiken
@Biggreenbooks @MorilloHall (I’m sorry this offer has gone - but I do recommend Joan Aiken’s book - The Way To Write For Children. It’s an extended essay more than a heavy duty ‘how to’ book, and is inspiring.)

Being Mortal: Medicine and What Matters in the End
Atul Gawande
Currently reading Atul Gawande’s ‘Being Mortal’. A good read - where good means sobering, heartfelt, important, desperate, hard, & sometimes hopeful. Probably good reading for anyone thresholding the latter part of their life course, or anyone who cares about/for someone who is.

Jigs & Reels: Stories
Joanne Harris
Today's #SmallJoy365 - listen to a story - so we went to hear Joanne Harris & The Storytime Band. Now I am full of wonderful stories. And an idea for something new. Listening is so different to reading. I had forgotten what it can do. https://t.co/esNsQ7CDCf
