Here’s a blog post l I wrote for Waterstones about The Wrong Shoes, publishing May 9th with Simon & Schuster Children's Books

I'm reading this book and it is EXCELLENT!

I really like the look/mood/commposition of this image.

Steve's books are fantastic and this new series looks/sounds so much fun!

Professeur Procyon Magnific.ai Am I supposed to be impressed? Why not pick up a pencil and try drawing it yourself? Poison.

I’ve just finished the first of today’s pieces of final art. I’ve ambitiously set three pieces as my target, which means everything’s soon going to go horribly wrong and I’ll have to be happy with just this one…

Love these Hobbit drawings.

I knew I'd enjoy it but didn't expect to love it quite this much. The Wrong Shoes by Tom Percival is astoundingly good. Emotional and extremely personal, full of situations that so many children will (sadly) relate to. I can see it becoming a favourite in Years 5 and 6.
