Quick heads-up for any teachers and librarians that you can find brand-new resources for Black Hole Cinema Club here: christopheredge.co.uk/resources

“Spellbinding…vivid storytelling made fresh by DasGupta’s brio & her subtle postcolonial side-eye, one that also celebrates the work of female scientists, so often unsung.”

Thankss Kitty Empire for including Sssecrets of the Snakestone as a 📖 of the month in The Observer!
