I was at my last school for 4 years and we had ********* book fairs every term – and every term, I was disappointed by the narrow range of books.

Billy and the Dragon - Shireen, Nadia: 9780857551351 - AbeBooks

It started last night when he was thinking about school - a funny, wiggly feeling in his tummy that grew and grew.Yourself and Bob are much cherished in our booky world and I personally really appreciate everything that you do. Billy and Fat Cat are back, and this time fancy-dress fun goes slightly wrong when Fat Cat is abducted by a dragon! Picture books can be a great way to practice inference skills and start class conversations about big topics. Shireen’s latest book confirms her as one of the brightest and best picture book creators working in Britain today. Fortunate readers familiar with Billy through Billy and the Beast know our heroine is no shrinking violet.

Billy and the Dragon | BookTrust

There was just the right amount of choice to suit everyone without being overwhelming and I received comments from parents and staff about the quality of books offered compared to previous sales which have always been based around current crazes and well known celebrity authors. This experience has been fantastic primarily for the children, the school and also for me (professionally).

Her debut book Good Little Wolf received a mention in the Bologna Ragazzi Opera Prima Award, and went on to win the UKLA Book Award. Billy and her sidekick, the amusingly monobrowed Fatcat (dressed as a very cute dragon), are enjoying the buns and bouncy castle at a fancy dress party when a very large REAL dragon swoops down from nowhere and grabs Fatcat! Shireen's latest book confirms her as one of the brightest and best picture book creators working in Britain today. She studied law at university and then worked in magazine journalism; it was during this time that she started to draw again.
