A copy of The Dangerous Life of Ophelia Bottom was sent to me for consideration into the @OxonBookAwards and OMG @susienottbower I LOVED it! Fab protagonist, great voice, shades of The Demon Headmaster mixed with subtle environment/sci-fi themes. Also that title is 👌 #ukmg https://t.co/84WAfxeIIE

I would like to recommend two books: GLITTER BOY by @MrEagletonIan which is about a boy who experiences homophobic bullying even though he may not actually be gay; and my own A Storm of Strawberries, in which the protagonist discovers her older sister is lesbian. Both for 8-12s🏳️‍🌈 https://t.co/TuE3y8MDqp

@sam_creighton @one_to_read @Mat_at_Brookes @LyndaJGraham Tadpole's Promise, picture book by Jeanne Willis and Tony Ross. Tadpole falls in love with caterpillar, promises caterpillar he won't change. She dumps him when he grows legs. Then she becomes a butterfly and realises foolishness. Flies back, Frog eats her without recognition.

Just finished reading THREE GIRLS by @storytellersinc pub @publishinguclan and I LOVE it. What a fantastic exploration of teenage female friendship developed through a shared love of running. Feels super-empowering and v #Feminist and it deserves to be widely read ❤ https://t.co/rD7wrArtc3

@one_to_read and I tried out the Musical Shorts activity from the Family Toolkit for #EmpathyDay - I chose the short story 'Beginnings' by @Eloisejwilliams which I think is perfectly accompanied by 'Little Wing' by @TheCorrsUK and Ben wrote a whole SONG for his choice! /1 https://t.co/NxV9sxl54W
