1. birthday birthday!

Happy birthday to me, happy birthday to me! And because it's my birthday, that means all my favourite things: lovely drawings, hats and cake. :D If you're coming to my book party on 13 Sept (I should say, our Cakes in Space party, and you're ALL invited!

Ha ha! Check out this drawing by my Jampires co-author, David O'Connell! :D




I tweeted, in case anyone wanted to draw something, that I'd be thrilled to bits if anyone drew me in a space scooter. Or if that was too tricky, a hamster in a fabulous hat. Look, Damiyanti Patel got my space costume just right, as well as drawing a killer-cake-led scooter!



SPACE DODGEMS. Fab drawing by Ric Lumb. :D



And speaking of that fab space costume, here's the woman who put it together, costumier Wendy Benstead! She was just in the middle of sketching designs for a client and tackled a Sarah hamster. :D
