I had a brilliant time celebrating World Book Day with pupils at West Thornton Primary Academy in Croydon, London.
Thank you to all the staff and my lovely audiences for making me feel so welcome. It was a lot of fun watching so many bright and excited imaginations creating their own disaster stories. There are a lot of future authors out there!
The Great Chocoplot was first released on World Book Day 2016.
Exactly six years later, on World Book Day 2022 it was back in a Number 1 Best Seller slot!!!
I’m thrilled and amazed that it continues to sell (and sell better than ever!).
Eternally grateful to everyone who has ever bought a copy or borrowed it from a library. I very much appreciate all the schools who use it as part of topic work or as their class novel.
Thank you, thank you. It’s a dream I still haven’t woken up from yet!
Please buy your books from your local bookshop whenever you can ?
And yes, it is a best seller in a slightly unusual category – but I’m still counting it!! ?
