OUT TODAY! I've spent much of the day driving to the lovely @kewbookshop to put up a #bigskymountain window, so I've not had much time to think about anything other than getting clouds to hang straight. 🤣 But it is a really exciting day, because the Sky Eagles is out!

Out on 20 July, here's the fourth book in the #bigskymountain series! I'm so happy to see this book finally coming out into the wild. Written and illustrated while at my worst with Long Covid/chronic fatigue, it feels like a huge deal to have the finished thing in my hands! 😍
