Up for an award, if you please!

Good Gracious! We are up for an award!

Our first adventure, Claude in the City, is shortlisted for the Waterstones Children's Book Award! 

When we found out Sir Bobblysock was beside himself and he's still as high as a kite. So am I. I've had to break into my Emergency Juicy Bone Baguette to keep my blood sugar up and Sir Bobblysock has had one cup of tea after another.

The winners are announced on 28th March in London so I'll be dusting off my smarted beret and Sir Bobblysock's going to have his roots done specially for the occasion.

We do love a party!

And there's more news:

Claude and Sir Boblysock were just mooching around London the other day when they happened to wander into the ENORMOUS Waterstone's on Piccadilly. They pootled up to the children's book floor and look what they found!

Their book at number two in the chart there! How exciting!

They couldn't resist taking a photo. Whilst they were there they had a flick through the book at number 10 - Fantastic Frankie and the Brain Drain Machine- which has been illustrated by their friend Alex T Smith.

Claude and Sir Bobblysock like the story very much, but were disappointed to find they weren't in any of the illustrations...
