It's my birthday! To celebrate, I'm giving away 3 signed & dedicated copies of TYGER - just RT by 19/5 to enter. And if I could have a birthday wish, it would be for other people to also give copies of TYGER - to children & adults, to schools & libraries. It would mean so much!

TEACHERS! PARENTS! To celebrate the release of my latest MG book, I have this shiny signed copy of The Pawnshop of Stolen Dreams to give away with a set cupcake erasers for every pupil & personalised postcards for one lucky class. Retweet & follow by 10pm 21st May! Tiny Tree Books 📕
