Norwich Science Festival Show SOLD OUT

 

If you were still thinking of coming along to the official launch of The Wonder of Life on Earth at the Norwich Science Festival on Wednesday (18 February) - I'm sorry, but you can't. I'm pleased and amazed to say that it's sold out. Still lots of other things to see and do, though, and the book will be available at the Festival Bookshop.

Second Sighting...

The Wonder of Life on Earth has been spotted in the wild by Mrs H. F. of Edgefield, Norfolk, at the Norfolk Childrens' Book Centre.

It's Out Now

First Time In The Wild

THE WONDER OF LIFE ON EARTH isn't officially out until Thursday, but Professor S. B. has already spotted one in the wild, at the Edinburgh Bookshop.

Limited Edition signed copies of 'The Wonder of Life on Earth'

 

The time is rapidly coming up to fast approaching the publication of The Wonder of Life on Earth, written by me, illustrated by Raxenne Maniquiz and published by Two Hoots (an imprint of Pan Macmillan) -- it's aimed at preteens but is really for people of Very All Ages. For full details click here. I'll be launching the book at the Norwich Science Festival on 18 February - tickets are now on sale. But wait, there's more: a special release of 1000 signed copies with free poster is available from independent bookstores. My favourite independent bookstores are The Book Hive in Norwich and Chicken and Frog in Brentwood, Essex, though I'm sure others are available. Support your local independent bookseller!

A Wondrous Wonder

Greeting me on my return from the Society of Vertebrate Palaeontology meeting in Birmingham, UK yesterday was the first actual copy of The Wonder of Life on Earth. With the lovely, rich illustrations from Raxenne Maniquiz it's a joy to behold. 

It'll be published on 5 February but it's already available for pre-order, and you can find more details here.
