Double publication day!

Swapna HaddowScrapbook

We’re having all the celebrations today at Swapna Haddow HQ because it is double publication day with Scholastic UK!

First up, The Night Before Diwali is out today and just in time for Diwali next month:

Join a little boy and his grandmother as they plan for the BEST DIWALI EVER! There are diyas to light, laddoos to roll and beautiful rangoli patterns to make! Can they get everything ready in time to throw their biggest Diwali celebration yet?

This is my Diwali-twist on the traditional ‘Night Before Christmas’ poem with Darshika Varma’s illustrations beautifully capturing the joy of celebrating Diwali. It features a Diwali fact sheet and a delicious laddoo recipe – I really hope young readers absolutely love this book.

And it’s also publication day for The Terrible Trio in the UK and they have their very own UK cover:

Let me know if you spot The Terrible Trio out in the wild in the UK or anywhere else in the world and HAPPY READING to you all!
