Mistletoe and Murder is a Times children’s book of the year!

November 28, 2016

It’s been an exciting weekend for Mistletoe and Murder! On Saturday, it was chosen as one of The Times‘s children’s books of the year. I’m absolutely delighted to see it featured next to the lovely Reeves & McIntyre and Piers Torday, as well as so many other great authors – it’s a real honour, and I couldn’t be prouder!

(Thanks to Alex O’Connell at The Times for featuring it, and to my mother for running out and buying two copies so that she could take this picture!)
