If you are on the Isle of Wight this Bank Holiday Monday, I do hope you’ll come and visit me on my stall at Bembridge Street Fair, 12 noon til four.

I will be selling copies of my rhyming picture books, Hairy Fairy and Isabella, Rotten Speller, which I am happy to sign for you (if you prefer your books defaced!) I will also be running an under-11s drawing competition with – you’ve guessed it – copies of Hairy Fairy and Isabella, Rotten Speller as prizes.

In the unlikely event that you’re not in the market for a couple of rhyming picture books, I hope you’ll still pop by the stand and say hello.
